Hypertension in the Older Adult.
Review in Primary care, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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.
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
Hypertension is common among adults and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and should be routinely addressed in primary care practice. Optimal blood pressure targets have evolved in the past decade with the release of large studies including older persons. However, controversy remains regarding the treatment of older and frail patients. The relationship between blood pressure treatment and falls or cognitive impairment is still an area of concern and debate. A strategy to address hypertension in older persons should consider an individual's fitness and the likelihood of adverse effects and worsening of conditions that adversely affect quality of life.
