Study on Risk and Influencing Factors of Hypertension in Chinese Elderly.
Article in Gerontology & geriatric medicine. 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
objectiveThe incidence of hypertension in elderly patients in China and influencing factors.
methodBased on the baseline data in 2013 from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), this study used the practical incidence estimator (PIE) method to estimate incidence of hypertension, and applied Cox regression to determine the relationship between the hypertension and influencing factors.
resultsIn general, the incidence of hypertension in elderly patients decreased with age, and the risk of hypertension in females was significantly higher than that in males. The cumulative incidence of hypertension for an individual, who is hypertension-free before the age of 65 years, could reach 86.21% (95% confidence interval [CI] = [85.09%, 87.87%]) during one's survival time. The status of drinking, pension and work, education background, place of residence, and gender were verified to influence the onset of hypertension.
conclusionFor Chinese elderly, developing hypertension during their life span has almost become an inevitable event, which may become a huge social burden in China.
