Prognostic Value of Blood Pressure Variability for Patients With Acute or Subacute Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Meta-Analysis of Prospective Studies.
Synthesis in Frontiers in neurology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The results on the role of systolic blood pressure (SBP) variability in the functional outcome for patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) have been inconsistent. Hence, this meta-analysis of prospective studies was conducted to assess the association between SBP variability and poor outcomes in patients with acute or subacute ICH. PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were electronically searched for eligible studies from their inception to July 2020. The role of SBP variability assessed using standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), successive variation (SV), average real variability (ARV), and residual standard deviation (RSD) in the risk of poor functional outcomes were assessed using odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) through the random-effects model. Seven prospective studies involving 5,201 patients with ICH were selected for the final meta-analysis. Increased SBP variability was associated with an increased risk of poor functional outcomes, regardless of its assessment using SD (OR: 1.38; 95% CI: 1.14-1.68;
