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

Hypertension is one of the most important risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD). The regulation of blood pressure plays a significant role in the development and prognosis of CHD. Blood pressure variability (BPV) refers to the degree of fluctuation of blood pressure over a period of time and is an important indicator of blood pressure stability. Blood pressure fluctuations are complex physiological phenomena, being affected by physiological and pharmacological effects and regulated by behavioral, environmental, hydrodynamic, and neural factors. According to the different time periods for measuring BPV, it can be divided into very short-term, short-term, mid-term, and long-term. Multiple cardiovascular disease animal models and clinical experiments have consistently indicated that abnormal BPV is closely related to coronary events and is a risk factor for CHD independently of average blood pressure. Thrombosis secondary to plaque rupture (PR) or plaque erosion can cause varying blood flow impairment, which is the main pathological basis of CHD. Plaque morphology and composition can influence the clinical outcome, treatment, and prognosis of patients with CHD. Research has shown that PR is more easily induced by hypertension. After adjusting for the traditional factors associated with plaque development, in recent years, some new discoveries have been made on the influence of abnormal BPV on the morphology and composition of coronary plaques and related mechanisms, including inflammation and hemodynamics. This article reviews the impact of BPV on coronary plaques and their related mechanisms, with a view to prevent the occurrence and development of CHD by controlling BPV and to provide new prevention and treatment strategies for the clinical treatment of abnormal blood pressure.
