1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Isolated systolic hypertension (ISHT) is common in elderly patients, whilst its prevalence and clinical impact in young adults are still debated. We aimed to estimate prevalence and clinical characteristics of ISHT and to evaluate out-of-office BP levels and their correlations with office BP in young adults. A single-center, cross-sectional study was conducted at our Hypertension Unit, by including treated and untreated individuals aged 18-50 years, who consecutively underwent home, clinic and 24 h ambulatory BP assessment. All BP measurements were performed and BP thresholds were set according to European guidelines: normotension (NT), clinic BP <140/<90 mmHg; ISHT, BP ≥140/<90 mmHg; isolated diastolic hypertension (IDHT), BP <140/≥90 mmHg; systolic-diastolic hypertension (SDHT), BP ≥140/≥90 mmHg. European SCORE, vascular and cardiac HMOD were also assessed. From an overall sample of 13,053 records, we selected 2127 young outpatients (44.2% female, age 40.5 ± 7.4 years, BMI 26.7 ± 5.0 kg/m
