Cuff-Based Oscillometric Measurements of Central Hemodynamics: Factors Influencing Central Augmentation Pressure in Normotensive Japanese Individuals.
Article in Pulse (Basel, Switzerland), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundRecently, new devices using oscillometric cuff have been developed to derive central blood pressure (BP) waveform from brachial BP waveform. Late systolic pressure augmentation of central BP waveform is a marker of central hemodynamics. Mobil-O-Graph, a cuff-based oscillometric device, can assess central augmentation pressure (AP) together with central BP. Central AP measurement using the Mobil-O-Graph in the European population was reported to be associated with age and sex. However, factors influencing central AP in the Asian population have not been shown. OBJECTIVES AND
methodsWe enrolled 110 normotensive volunteers (50 men; age range, 21‒76 years). Central BP and AP were measured using the Mobil-O-Graph on the left arm with the subjects in the seated position after resting for at least 5 min. We compared central hemodynamics between the sexes. We investigated factors influencing central AP in uni- and multivariate linear regression analyses and age-related change in central AP using the Mobil-O-Graph in healthy Japanese individuals.
resultsCentral AP were lower in men than in women (5.5 ± 2.8 vs. 11.0 ± 4.7 mm Hg,
conclusionsAge, sex, and height influenced central AP, as assessed using the Mobil-O-Graph. Age-related increase in central AP was observed in normotensive Japanese individuals. Brachial cuff-based waveform recordings using the Mobil-O-Graph are feasible for the estimation of central AP in the Asian population.
