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

We investigated the optimal nighttime home blood pressure (BP) measurement schedule for wrist BP monitoring. Fifty hypertensive patients (mean age 68.9 ± 11.3 years) self-measured their nighttime BP hourly using a wrist-type nocturnal home BP monitoring device at home on two consecutive nights. Using the average 7.2 ± 1.5 measurements per night, we compared the clock-based index (average of three measurements at 2:00, 3:00, and 4:00 a.m.) and the bedtime-based index (average of three measurements at 2, 3, and 4 h after bedtime). The clock-based average was significantly higher than the bedtime-based average for both systolic BP (2.7 ± 8.2 mmHg, P = .002) and diastolic BP (1.9 ± 5.1 mmHg, P < .001). Compared to the average of all measurements throughout a night (the same definition of ambulatory BP monitoring, ie, from the time point of going to bed to awakening), the clock-based average was comparable (systolic/diastolic BP: -0.5 ± 5.5/-0.2 ± 3.7), whereas the bedtime-based average was significantly lower (-3.3 ± 5.0/-2.1 ± 3.6). Thus, the repeated measurement of wrist-measured nighttime BP at three clock-based time points per night provided reliable values. Further prospective studies of larger populations are required to confirm the optimal nighttime BP measurement schedule for wrist BP monitoring for the prediction of cardiovascular events.
