Time-weighted blood pressure with cardiovascular risk among patients with or without diabetes.
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundUsual measures of blood pressure (BP) do not account for both the magnitude and duration of exposure to elevated BP over time. We aimed to demonstrate the effect of a novel time-weighted BP on cardiovascular outcomes using a post hoc analysis of two published randomized trials. HYPOTHESIS: Time-weighted blood pressure is associated with cardiovascular risk among patients with or without diabetes.
methodsThe limited-access ACCORD and SPRINT data sets were used for the current study. Time-weighted BP is obtained by dividing cumulative BP by the total follow-up time. Time-weighted BP burden above a threshold is also determined after deriving the time-weighted BP by re-zeroing the interpolated pressure values at two different hypertension thresholds (>140/90 and >130/80 mmHg).
resultsEighteen thousand five hundred forty-one patients from the two clinical trials were enrolled in this study. A J-curve relation was observed between time-weighted BP and major cardiovascular events (MACE). The systolic blood pressure (SBP) burden independently predicted MACE across the two trials at different thresholds (ACCORD: SBP > 130 mmHg, HR = 1.05 [1.03-1.06]; SBP > 140 mmHg, HR = 1.06 [1.04-1.08]; SPRINT: SBP > 130 mmHg, HR = 1.04 [1.03-1.05]; SBP > 140 mmHg, HR = 1.05 [1.04-1.07]). Consistent results were found for diastolic blood pressure (DBP) burden (ACCORD: DBP > 80 mmHg, HR = 1.10 [1.06-1.15]; DBP > 90 mmHg, HR = 1.20 [1.11-1.30]. SPRINT: DBP > 80 mmHg, HR = 1.06 [1.02-1.09]; DBP > 90 mmHg, HR = 1.12 [1.06-1.18]). Significant associations were also observed for stroke, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death, and all-cause mortality.
conclusionBoth time-weighted SBP and DBP independently influenced the risk of adverse cardiovascular events among patients with and without diabetes, regardless of the definition of hypertension (130/80 or <140/90 mmHg).
