Associations Between Prematurity, Birthweight, and Adolescence Blood Pressure in a Nationwide Cohort.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Introduction: Prematurity is associated with incomplete nephrogenesis and an increased incidence of acute kidney injury, that may increase the risk of future kidney disease, including hypertension, proteinuria and reduced glomerular filtration rate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of hypertension or proteinuria in adolescents born prematurely or small for gestational age, in a nationwide cohort. Methods: The study cohort included potential recruits examined in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) medical facilities, between November 2005 and October 2018. Clinical and anthropometric data, including blood pressure (BP) measurement, were retrieved from the IDF medical files. Adolescents born between January 1993 and December 2000 had additional data on gestational age at birth, retrieved from the Israeli Ministry of Health database. Results: The study cohort included 513,802 participants, aged 17.3 ± 0.9 years, of whom 48,994 had gestational age data. Adolescents born as very preterm, as extremely preterm infants, those born with very low birthweight (VLBW), or with extremely low birthweight (ELBW) had higher incidence of hypertensive-range BP (55%, 47%, 19% and 12%, respectively). No significant association between birthweight (BW) adjusted to gestational age and hypertension was observed. Within the overweight and obese adolescents, those born with VLBW and ELBW, had further increased hypertensive-range BP rate. Proteinuria was diagnosed in 0.33% of the study cohort, with no significant difference between BW or gestational age categories. Conclusion: Adolescents born with VLBW or as significant preterm were associated with high BP and should be monitored for hypertension development and its potential complications.
