1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Although previous research has indicated an association between osteoarthritis (OA) and cardiovascular disease, it remains unclear whether people with OA are at greater risk of developing hypertension. The aim of this study was to answer this uncertainity. We used the data of the Osteoarthritis Initiative, an ongoing public and private longitudinal study including people at higher risk of OA or having knee OA. Knee OA was defined through radiological and clinical assessment. Incident hypertension was defined as a systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or a diastolic value ≥90 mmHg. Multivariate Cox's regression analyses were constructed considering the presence of knee OA as the exposure and incident hypertension as the outcome during a 96-month follow-up interval. A total of 3558 people with normative blood pressure values at baseline were analyzed (1930 OA/1628 controls). Incidence of hypertension within the follow-up interval was significantly higher in people with knee OA than in those without (60/[1000 person-years] vs. 55/[1000 person-years]; p < 0.0001). After adjusting for 13 confounders, people with knee OA had a 13% higher chance of developing hypertension (hazard ratio = 1.13; 95% confidence interval: 1.01-1.26; p = 0.03). Propensity score analysis did not alter these conclusions. In conclusion, this is the first longitudinal data analysis to demonstrate that people with knee OA have a higher chance of developing hypertension than those without OA. Our data suggest that monitoring blood pressure and prescribing health promotion interventions may be warranted among people with OA to mitigate the potential onset and adverse consequences of hypertension.
