Association between B-type natriuretic peptide and within-visit blood pressure variability.
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundBlood pressure variability (BPV) has been shown to predict cardiovascular events. Within-visit BPV is the simplest and easiest measure of BPV, but previous studies have shown conflicts as to whether within-visit BPV correlates with target organ damage. We aimed to evaluate whether within-visit BPV correlates with B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in a general population. HYPOTHESIS: Within-visit BPV correlates with BNP in a general population.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study that included 633 individuals, randomly selected, age 45 to 99 years, registered in the primary care program from an urban medium-sized town. Patients were scheduled for a single-day visit that consisted of clinical evaluation and laboratory tests. Three blood pressure (BP) readings, 1 minute apart, were done, and within-visit BPV was determined as the coefficient of variation (CV) of the 3 BP measures. Our main outcome was to correlate BNP and within-visit BPV. A multivariable model was estimated using a generalized linear model to evaluate the independent effects of different variables on BNP levels.
resultsThe median age was 57 years. Median BNP was 16 pg/mL, and the median systolic and diastolic BP-CV were, respectively, 3.9% and 3.5%. There was a weak but positive correlation between BNP and both systolic BP-CV and diastolic BP-CV (r = 0.107 and P = 0.007 and r = 0.092 and P = 0.019, respectively). In multiple regression equation, systolic BP, diastolic BP-CV, body mass index, and estimated glomerular filtration rate were associated with BNP.
conclusionsIn the present study, there was a positive, albeit weak, correlation between within-visit BPV and BNP. In addition, diastolic BPV was associated with BNP even after adjustment for multiple confounders.
