Blood Pressure Trajectories for 16 Years and the Development of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Increased Left Atrial Size: The Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study.
Article in International journal of hypertension, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Elevated single blood pressure (BP) measurement can be associated with the development of hypertension-mediated target organ damage including left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and left atrial (LA) enlargement (LAE). However, long-term patterns of BP and their effects on LVH and LAE are poorly understood. We evaluated the association between the BP trajectories and the presence of LVH and LAE. Methods: We analyzed a total of 2,565 participants (1,267 males, 47.8 ± 6.7 years old) from the first biennial examination (2001-2002) of the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study. The presence of LVH and LAE was identified by echocardiography performed at the 8 Results: We identified 4 distinct mid-BP trajectories: group 1 (lowest, 20.9%, Conclusions: Higher long-term mid-BP was an independent risk factor of cardiac structural changes such as LVH and LAE among middle-aged population.
