Accurate blood pressure measuring devices: Influencing users in the 21st century.
Review in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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 now recognized as a major global cause of morbidity and death. All decisions relating to the epidemiology, diagnosis, and management of hypertension are dependent on being able to measure blood pressure accurately. Scientists have developed protocols to assess the accuracy of blood pressure-measuring devices, but little attention has been given to informing users which devices are accurate and inaccurate. This article identifies a recipient audience of researchers, clinicians, and scientists, the public, healthcare executives and administrators, and consumer and regulatory bodies, and discusses how best to communicate the results of device accuracy to these groups with the aim of improving the accurate measurement of blood pressure.
