Deaths from total and premature cardiovascular disease associated with high normal blood pressure and hypertension in rural Chinese men and elderly people.

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
To investigate the association of blood pressure (BP) categories with total and premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in rural Chinese. The study included 14,539 adults ≥18 years in rural China. Baseline study visits were conducted in 2007-2008, and follow-up visits in 2013-2014. Data were collected by face-to-face questionnaire interview, and anthropometric and laboratory measurements. A sub-distribution hazards model was used to calculate adjusted sub-distribution hazard ratios (aSHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). During the 6-year follow-up, 257 total and 209 premature CVD deaths occurred. As compared with normal BP (systolic BP/diastolic BP (SBP/DBP) < 120/80 mmHg), for men and people aged ≥60 years, hypertension (SBP/DBP ≥ 140/90 mmHg) associated with total CVD mortality (aSHR 3.57, 95% CI 2.06-6.17; aSHR 2.15, 1.29-3.56) and premature CVD mortality (aSHR 4.41, 2.37-8.21; aSHR 2.31, 1.27-4.19). Also, as compared with normal BP, for men and people aged ≥60 years with high normal BP (SBP/DBP 120-139/80-89 mmHg), risk of total CVD mortality increased (aSHR 1.85, 1.05-3.28; aSHR 1.78, 1.05-3.04), as was premature CVD mortality (aSHR 1.89, 0.99-3.64; aSHR 1.91, 1.03-3.54). Among men and people aged ≥60 years in rural China, risk of total and premature CVD mortality was increased for those with high normal BP and hypertension. Prevention and treatment strategies for additional CVD risk reduction targeting men and elderly people with hypertension or even high normal BP are needed to reduce CVD mortality risk.
