Association of Childhood Blood Pressure with Left Atrial Size and Function: Study of High Blood Pressure in Pediatrics-Adult Hypertension in Youth (SHIP AHOY).

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
OBJECTIVE(S): To evaluate the cross-sectional association of cardiovascular disease risk factors with left atrial (LA) size and function among healthy youth, aged 11-18 years, with a wide range of blood pressures (BPs). STUDY
designEchocardiographic images of youth enrolled in the Study of High Blood Pressure in Pediatrics: Adult Hypertension Onset in Youth study were analyzed for LA measurements. The association of casual BP, ambulatory BP, and other cardiovascular disease risk factors with LA size and function were determined using descriptive statistics and multivariable regression. Regression models adjusting for age, sex, race, and body mass index z score determined the independent association between ambulatory systolic BP indices (mean systolic BP/50th %ile systolic BP) and BP phenotypes with LA outcomes while exploratory analyses investigated for additional predictors of LA outcomes.
resultsThe study population consisted of 347 youth: median age 15.7 years, 60% male and 40% non-White. Greater-risk casual systolic BP groups had worse cardiometabolic profiles but no differences in LA size and function. Each 0.1 increase in ambulatory systolic BP day or night index was associated with a 9.9 mL/m
conclusionsIncreasing ambulatory systolic BP and ambulatory hypertension are independently associated with LAV/BSA.
