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

Objective: This study aims to analyze the prevalence of hypertension and 10-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among older adults living in a coastal region of southeast China. Methods: A population-based cross-sectional survey of 2018 adults was conducted on 60-98-year-old residents in Quanzhou from September 2016 to March 2018 using multistage stratified cluster random sampling. The 10-year CVD risk was estimated by applying the Chinese model recommended by the Chinese guidelines for CVD prevention. Results: The overall prevalence of hypertension, prehypertension, and normotension among older adults in Quanzhou was 29.0%, 18.7%, and 52.3%, respectively. The percentage of participants with low, moderate, and high 10-year CVD risk was 49.7%, 36.8%, and 13.5%, respectively. Older age, low salt awareness, and low levels of physical activity were significantly correlated with hypertension. The 10-year CVD risk was higher for men than women and increased with age. Higher blood pressure was associated with a greater 10-year CVD risk. Conclusion: More than half of the older adults in Quanzhou surveyed by this study were normotensive, and approximately half the participants had a moderate or high 10-year CVD risk. We recommend the implementation of regionally targeted interventions, such as screening of blood pressure and other risk factors, to reduce blood pressure and CVD risk in Chinese populations.
