Left atrial stiffness index as a marker of early target organ damage in hypertension.
Article in Hypertension research : official journal of the Japanese Society of Hypertension, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
This study aimed to evaluate left atrial (LA) mechanics using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) and investigate their correlations with measures of target organ damage (TOD) in hypertension. We enrolled 42 healthy controls (Group I) and 286 hypertension patients: Group II (n = 79) had an LA volume index (LAVI) <28 ml/m
