Difference in the Prevalence of Elevated Blood Pressure and Hypertension by References in Korean Children and Adolescents.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 prevalence of pediatric hypertension and obesity has increased over the past decades. Pediatric hypertension and obesity are associated with adult hypertension, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease. There are two main pediatric blood pressure (BP) classification guidelines, the "Clinical Practice Guideline for Screening and Management of High Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents" (AAP 2017) and "2016 European Society of Hypertension guidelines for the management of high BP in children and adolescents" (ESH 2016). No study has classified Korean youths with cardiometabolic risk. This study analyzed the prevalence of high BP according to AAP 2017 (elevated BP and hypertension) and ESH 2016 (prehypertension and hypertension) in Korean children. Additionally, the cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) were compared between children who were hypertensive in AAP 2017 but normotensive in ESH 2016 (upward reclassified) to those who were normotensive in both AAP 2017 and ESH 2016. Data were extracted from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2016-2018. A total of 1,858 children aged 10-17 years were included in the analysis. The prevalence of elevated BP/prehypertension and hypertension was 4.1 and 6.5% by ESH 2016, and 8.9 and 9.4% by AAP 2017 in Korean youth, respectively. The AAP 2017 reclassified 11.9% of youth in the upper BP class. When those upward reclassified youth were compared to those who were normotensive in both AAP 2017 and ESH 2016, reclassified youth were male predominant (77.1 vs. 49.6%,
