Nocturia and Blood Pressure Elevation in Adolescents.
Article in Journal of community health, 2024. 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
Nocturia has been increasingly recognized as a manifestation of various non-urological conditions including hypertension. In adults, blood pressure (BP) elevation has been identified as a robust correlate of nocturia, but such a relationship has not been studied in pediatric populations where nocturia is often attributed to hormonal, sleep, physiological or psychological disorders. Accordingly, this study aimed to determine the relationship between nocturia and BP elevation in adolescents. We prospectively studied 100 patients, aged 10-18 years, recruited from pediatric clinics at our institution. Nocturia (defined as ≥ 1 voids on voiding diary analysis) was present in 45% of the study sample (range: 1-4 voids/night). 37% of subjects self-reported awakening to urinate, and 34% of subjects had BP elevation according to age-dependent thresholds from current Pediatrics guidelines. On multivariate analyses, BP elevation was strongly associated with nocturia determined by both voiding diary (OR 26.2, 95% CI: 6.5, 106.0) and self-report. Conversely, nocturia was associated with increased odds of elevated BP by diary (26.3, 95% CI: 6.5, 106.4) and self-report (OR 8.1, 95% CI: 3.2, 20.5). In conclusion, nocturia appears to be common and is strongly associated with BP elevation in adolescents. These findings suggest that eliciting a history of nocturia holds promise as a simple method of identifying adolescents at risk for hypertension.
