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
Aim We examine the lipid profile and correlation of serum uric acid (SUA) levels in cases of hypertension and normotensives. Methods The current observational study spanned between April 2022 and April 2024. Throughout the research, 200 patients were examined; 100 of these patients were classified as Stage 1 or Stage 2 hypertensive (as per the seventh report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure), while the other 100 served as controls, meaning they did not have hypertension or any other medical condition that could lead to elevated SUA levels. Results It was revealed that the proportion of hypertension was higher in males compared to females. Of the total male patients, most (41.1%) patients had grade 1 hypertension and grade 2 hypertension, while among females, 20% had grade 1 hypertension. It was seen that as age increases, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) also rise among the two study groups, although the correlation was not statistically significant between blood pressure level and age of study subjects. The hypertensive patients have increased SBP and DBP levels when compared to the control group, which is significant. The lipid profile shows that the hypertensive subjects had significantly higher mean low-density lipoprotein (LDL), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), and triglyceride levels than controls. SUA levels were observed to be elevated in the hypertensive subjects implying a positive correlation between the level of uric acid and blood pressures. Conclusion We found evidence that hyperuricemia and hypertension go hand in hand. A statistically noteworthy positive connection was found between the systolic blood pressures and lipid profiles of the patients. Hypertensive patients were found to have hyperlipidemia, whereas normotensive controls had normal lipid profiles. Moreover, it was seen that there was a positive correlation between SBP and chronological age in hypertensive cases, although this was statistically not significant.
