Prevalence and Associated Risk Factors of Hypertension in Adults with Disabilities: A Cross-Sectional Study in Shanghai, China.
Article in Clinical epidemiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundAlthough hypertension is highly prevalent in China, epidemiologic data of hypertension among people with disabilities remain largely unknown. This study aims to examine the prevalence and associated risk factors of hypertension in patients with disabilities.
methodsA cross-sectional study was carried out among 7348 adults with disabilities from February to December 2018 in Shanghai, and patient data from physical, imageological and routine blood examinations were collected and analyzed. Logistic regression models were performed to determine the associated risk factors of hypertension in adults with disabilities.
resultsAmong the 7348 disabled patients, the prevalence of hypertension, rate of receiving treatment, and blood pressure control were 42.5%, 85.0% and 46.0%, respectively. Increases in the levels of age, physical disability, body mass index (BMI), fasting plasma glucose (FBG), total triglyceride (TG), hyperuricemia (hyper-UA), serum urea (SU), and estimated creatinine clearance (eCrCl <80 μmol/L) were independently correlated with hypertension.
conclusionPatients with physical disabilities have a significantly higher prevalence of hypertension compared to the normal population. Patients with intellectual or mental disabilities have lower rates of blood pressure control compared to other types of disabilities. Assessment of associated risk factors highlights an increased likelihood of potential renal dysfunction among hypertensive disabled patients.
