Seasonal blood pressure variation: implications for cardiovascular risk stratification.
Review in Hypertension research : official journal of the Japanese Society of Hypertension, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Long-term blood pressure variations contribute to an increased risk of cardiovascular events during cold season, requiring personalized management of antihypertensive medications in a single patient, and can influence the results of clinical trials and epidemiological surveys in population studies. In addition to blood pressure values, which guide the stratification of cardiovascular risk, other cardiovascular risk factor levels also tend to be higher in the winter months and lower in the summer months. The resultant estimation of individual cardiovascular risk may thus vary depending on the season. At the patient level, only a low value in the winter should thus be considered a true measure of low cardiovascular risk, whereas low values measured in the summer do not indicate a low risk in the winter. Likewise, estimations of cardiovascular risk in population studies may vary according to the period of the year. Efforts should thus be directed at considering the potential influence of seasonal variations in establishing "normal" and "high-risk" assessment at both the patient and population levels, integrating such data into clinical practice.
