Assessment of carotid cross-sectional area in hypertensive patients: phenotyping and prognostic validation in The Campania Salute Network.
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 4 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
Increased intima-media thickness (IMT) of common carotid artery (CA) is considered the hallmark of vascular hypertension-mediated target organ damage, even if vessel remodeling due to mechanical stress may also induce changes in diameter. We developed a method computing both diameter and IMT of CA, to assess correlates and prognostic impact of carotid cross-sectional area (CCSA) in a large registry of treated hypertensive patients. We selected 6300 hypertensive patients of the Campania Salute Network registry free of overt cardiovascular (CV) disease and with available CA ultrasound (54 ± 11 years; 57% male). CCSA was computed as:[Formula: see text]CCSA was considered high if >90th percentile of the sex-specific distribution (>48 mm
