Association Between Morning Surge in Systolic Blood Pressure and SYNTAX Score I in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease.
Article in Texas Heart Institute journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A high morning surge in systolic blood pressure poses a risk in people who have cardiovascular disease. We investigated the relationship between this phenomenon and the SYNTAX score I in patients who had stable coronary artery disease. Our single-center study included 125 consecutive patients (109 men and 16 women; mean age, 54.3 ± 9 yr) in whom coronary angiography revealed stable coronary artery disease. We calculated each patient's sleep-trough morning surge in systolic blood pressure, then calculated the SYNTAX score I. The morning surge was significantly higher in patients whose score was >22 (mean, 22.7 ± 13.2) than in those whose score was ≤22 (mean, 12.4 ± 7.5) (P <0.001). Forward stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed that morning surge in systolic blood pressure was the only independent predictor of an intermediate-to-high score (odds ratio=1.183; 95% CI, 1.025-1.364; P=0.021). To our knowledge, this is the first study to show an association between morning surge in systolic blood pressure and the SYNTAX score I in patients who have stable coronary artery disease.
