Prognostic Impact of 24-Hour Pulse Pressure Components in Treated Hypertensive Patients Older Than 65 Years.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 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
(1) Background: The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic impact of 24-hour pulse pressure (PP), elastic PP (elPP) and stiffening PP (stPP) in elderly treated hypertensive patients; (2) Methods: In this retrospective study, we evaluated 745 treated hypertensive subjects older than 65 years who underwent ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to assess 24-hour PP and 24-hour elPP and stPP, as calculated by a mathematical model. The association of these PP components with a combined endpoint of cardiovascular events was investigated; (3) Results: The 24-hour PP, elPP and stPP were 59 ± 12.5, 47.5 ± 9.5 and 11.5 ± 6.5 mmHg, respectively. During the follow-up (mean 8.4 years), 284 events occurred, including coronary events, stroke, heart failure hospitalization and peripheral revascularization. In the univariate Cox regression analysis, 24-hour PP, elPP and stPP were associated with the combined outcome. After the adjustment for covariates, per one standard deviation increase, 24-hour PP had a borderline association with risk (hazard ratio (HR) 1.16, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.00-1.34), 24-hour elPP remained associated with cardiovascular events (HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.05-1.36) and 24-hour stPP lost its significance. (4) Conclusions: 24-hour elPP is a predictor of cardiovascular events in elderly treated hypertensive patients.
