Prevalence of Hypertension and Its Association with Cardiovascular Risk Factors in College Students in Hunan, China.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2023. 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
Background: Although the prevalence of hypertension has been well studied in middle age and elderly populations, few studies have systematically investigated the prevalence of hypertension and its association with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factors in young populations. Objective: This study examined the prevalence of hypertension in college students and its correlation with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factors, such as neck circumference and body mass index (BMI). Methods: This population-based study recruited a total of 1719 students (723 were junior, 502 were sophomore, and 494 were freshman), including 996 males (average age: 20.8 years) and 723 females (average age: 20.4 years). Hypertension was defined by the 2018 revised edition of the Chinese Guidelines for Prevention and Treatment of Hypertension. Blood and pulse pressure were measured using standard protocols. Circulating levels of lipids, glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (GHb), leptin, and adiponectin were determined using standard methods. The Chi-squared (χ Findings: The prevalence of hypertension was 10.59% in the total cohort, and sophomores had a higher prevalence of hypertension than freshmen and juniors (χ Conclusion: The prevalence of hypertension in college students is closely correlated with two obesity indicators, neck circumference and BMI.
