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
objectiveAortic arch calcification (AAC) is a surrogate marker for arterial stiffness and hypertension-related vascular damage. Renal resistive index (RRI), a renal Doppler ultrasonography parameter, is used to assess renal hemodynamics. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between RRI and AAC in patients with hypertension.
methodsPatients with hypertension underwent a chest X-ray and re nal Doppler ultrasonography. They were divided into two groups according to RRI (group 1: RRI ≥0.70; group 2: RRI < 0.70). Two examiners, blinded to the findings of RRI, reviewed the AAC in these patients. The kappa value was detected to be 0.781 and a p value < 0.001 was considered significant.
resultsThe study included 289 hypertensive patients (mean age 63.87 ± 11.38 years). In 53.6% (n = 155) of the study subjects, RRI was observed to be ≥0.70. Patients with RRI ≥70 were older and had more prevalent AAC as well as left ventricular hypertrophy. A multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to test whether presence of AAC significantly predicted RRI. The results of the regression analysis indicated that presence of AAC significantly predicted RRI (β = 0.053; p < 0.001).
conclusionsA strong and independent relationship was found between AAC on chest X-ray and RRI in patients with hypertension.
