Disturbed Sleep as a Mechanism of Race Differences in Nocturnal Blood Pressure Non-Dipping.
Review in Current hypertension reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
purpose of reviewDisturbed sleep may be a mechanism of race differences in nocturnal blood pressure non-dipping. In support of this proposal, we summarize recent research from three literatures: (1) race differences (Black compared with White individuals) in nocturnal blood pressure non-dipping, (2) the association between disturbed sleep and nocturnal blood pressure non-dipping, and (3) race differences in disturbed sleep. RECENT
findingsBlack individuals are nearly twice as likely to have blood pressure non-dipping profiles compared with White individuals. This may be explained, in part, by sleep; shorter sleep duration, greater sleep fragmentation, less slow-wave sleep, and obstructive sleep apnea have each been associated with nocturnal blood pressure non-dipping. These sleep disturbances, in turn, are more common in Black compared with White individuals. Studies focused on nocturnal blood pressure non-dipping rarely assess sleep, and experimental evidence linking disturbed sleep with nocturnal blood pressure non-dipping in Black individuals is lacking. While mounting evidence from independent literatures suggests that disturbed sleep is a plausible, modifiable mechanism of race differences in nocturnal blood pressure non-dipping, definitive conclusions are premature given the current state of science.
