The relationship between body fat ratio and blood pressure in school-age children.

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
Hypertension (HTN) and obesity prevalences are rising in childhood and it is important to evaluate associations of these situations. The objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between HTN and body fat ratios (BFR) in children. This cross-sectional study was conducted among 134 participants who were directed to pediatric nephrology outpatient clinic with the prediagnosis of primary HTN. Weight, height, body fat ratio, blood pressure, and ambulatory blood pressure monitor (ABPM) was carried out for all the participants. Of the participants, 70 of them were diagnosed as hypertension with ABPM and included in the patient group, 64 of them had elevated office blood pressure (BP) but normotensive according to ABPM were included in the control group. Body fat ratio (BFR) levels of the patient group were higher than the control group (p < 0.05). There were significant linear correlation between night systolic blood pressure (SBP), night diastolic blood pressure (DBP), night mean arterial pressure (MAP), and BFR in the patient group (p < 0.05). There was a negative correlation between BFR and dipper (p = 0.022; p < 0.05) in the patient group. There was no correlation between BFR and blood pressures or dipper in the control group. According to our results BFR levels have significant association with HTN. According to our findings high BFR especially effects night BP, pulses, nondipping, and nighttime values can be evaluated only with ABPM. For prevention of HTN in children, caution should be given to monitor and lower BFR values.
