Association of white mater lesions with orthostatic hypotension.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo reveal the cerebral hypoperperfusion characteristics of White matter lesions (WMLs), we monitored the blood pressure (BP) fluctuation in patients with orthostatic hypotension (OH) and WMLs.
methodsA total of 2265 syncope patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. Clinical outcomes of brain MRI or CT, tilt test and continuous electrocardiogram monitoring were reviewed. All patients were divided into two groups according to WMLs status, and the WMLs group was further classified into three subgroups according to Fazekas grade (1-3). BP fluctuation in these subgroups was compared. The risk factors of WMLs and OH were determined by a multivariate logistic regression test.
resultsA total of 2265 syncope patients were enrolled, among which 56% patients were male. The average age of patients with WMLs was (61±12) years old. ΔTIME (Odds ratio [OR]: 1.014, 95% confidence interval [CI]: (1.005, 1.023), P=0.0015) and ΔSBP1 (OR: 0.990, 95% CI: (0.980, 1.000), P=0.0579) were demonstrated to be the risk factors of WMLs. The number of cases of repeated drops in blood pressure was twice as high as the cases with only drop in BP . The median and mean ΔSBP and ΔTIME of patients with WMLs were higher than those without WMLs. The incidence of diabetes, hypertension, age and Parkinson Plus Syndromes in patients with WMLs significantly decreased in comparison to those without WMLs (OR-diabetes: 2.558, OR-hypertension: 1.713, OR-age: 0.924 and OR-Parkinson Plus Syndromes: 0.476, P<0.05).
conclusionWMLs occurs in patients with hypoperfusion of recurrent OH. Vascular WMLs is associated with diabetes, hypertension, and age is at higher risk than WMLs associated with Parkinson Plus Syndromes.
