Association of pulse pressure with all-cause and cause-specific mortality.
Article in Journal of human hypertension, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Brachial pulse pressure (PP) was used as a measure of arterial stiffness, and we investigated whether PP was associated with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in a rural Chinese population. A total of 13,223 participants were enrolled in the Rural Chinese Cohort Study during 2007-2008 and followed up in 2013-2014. Data were collected by questionnaire interview, anthropometric, and laboratory measurements. A multivariate Cox proportional-hazard model was used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of PP (increased by 1 standard deviation) for all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Subgroup analyses were conducted by sex and age. During a mean follow-up of 5.96 years, the all-cause mortality was 78.61/10000 person-years. The association of PP with all-cause and other causes of mortality was significant, and the adjusted HRs (95% CIs) were 1.16 (1.06-1.28), and 1.18 (1.00-1.40), respectively. On subgroup analyses, PP was positively associated with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in participants <65 years or males and positively associated with other causes of mortality in males. The risk of all-cause and other causes of mortality increased with increasing PP in a rural Chinese population. Higher PP may increase the risk of all-cause and CVD mortality for males and people <65 years as well as the risk of other causes of mortality for males in rural Chinese people.
