1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

A 42-year-old hypertensive woman came to our hospital suffering from shortness of breath. Her left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was increased, and a new arterial stiffness index, cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), was also elevated. By treating hypertension (HT), diabetes mellitus (DM) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), her left ventricular concentric hypertrophy was improved, accompanying with a decrease in CAVI. These observations suggested that arterial stiffness monitored with CAVI might be involved in cardiac hypertrophy. This cardio-vascular interaction could be demonstrated at the first time by monitoring CAVI, which is not affected by blood pressure (BP) at measuring time.
