Gender Differences in Hypertension.
Review in Journal of cardiovascular translational research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 120 papers, 6 of them syntheses 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
Hypertension is the leading risk factor for global mortality and morbidity and remains the major preventable cause of cardiovascular diseases. Gender differences in risk factors and awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension have been well established in humans. There are significant differences in epidemiology and clinical characteristic of hypertension between men and women. Moreover, gender differences are linked with several specific types of hypertension, including postmenopausal hypertension, white coat hypertension, masked hypertension, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Gender differences have been implicated in the prevalence and determinants of hypertension and prehypertension whereas the control rate is similar between men and women taking antihypertensive medication. Importantly, distinct roles of the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2/Apelin signaling, sex hormone, endothelin-1, and sympathetic nervous activity contribute to sex differences in blood pressure control. This review summarizes gender differences in clinical features and determinants of hypertension and the underlying mechanisms responsible for hypertension.
