Cardiovascular and cerebral vascular health in females with postacute sequelae of COVID-19.
Article in American journal of physiology. Heart and circulatory physiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Many individuals who had coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) develop detrimental persistent symptoms, a condition known as postacute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC). Despite the elevated risk of cardiovascular disease following COVID-19, limited studies have examined vascular function in PASC with equivocal results reported. Moreover, the role of PASC symptom burden on vascular health has not been examined. We tested the hypothesis that peripheral and cerebral vascular function would be blunted and central arterial stiffness would be elevated in patients with PASC compared with age-matched controls. Furthermore, we hypothesized that impairments in vascular health would be greater in those with higher PASC symptom burden. Resting blood pressure (BP; brachial and central), brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD), forearm reactive hyperemia, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), and cerebral vasodilator function were measured in 12 females with PASC and 11 age-matched female controls without PASC. The severity of persistent symptoms in those with PASC was reported on a scale of 1-10 (higher score: greater severity). Brachial BP (e.g., systolic BP, 126 ± 19 vs.109 ± 8 mmHg;
