1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesTo investigate changes in blood pressure (BP) among pediatric patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) and determine the variables that might influence these changes.

methodsA total of 100 pediatric patients with SCD who followed up in the pediatric outpatient clinic were recruited for this retrospective cohort study. Clinical data included anthropometric measures, average systolic and diastolic BP recorded during multiple follow-up visits, hemoglobin (Hb) level, serum creatinine, and hemoglobin S percentage. Blood pressure measurements were categorized according to the guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP, 2017).

resultsIn this cohort, 68% of the patients had normal systolic BP, 13% had elevated systolic BP, 17% had stage 1 hypertension (HTN), while only 2% reported stage 2 HTN. Patients who were overweight had relatively high systolic BP compared to patients who were underweight (

conclusionPediatric overweight SCD patients exhibited higher average systolic BP than those underweight or normal weight. Body mass index and serum creatinine significantly influenced the average systolic BP more than the Hb level or Hb S percentage.
