Hypertension in the Shadows of Conflict: The Impact of the Sudan War on Blood Pressure Management.
Article in High blood pressure & cardiovascular prevention : the official journal of the Italian Society of Hypertension, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The Sudan conflict has severely impacted hypertension management, exacerbating the condition through chronic stress, disrupted healthcare, and lifestyle changes. Hypertension, a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, worsens with war-related stress and limited access to medications due to damaged healthcare infrastructure. Additionally, displacement, economic hardship, and food insecurity contribute to poor diets and reduced physical activity, further complicating blood pressure control. This article highlights the urgent need for adaptive healthcare strategies, such as mobile clinics and international aid, to address these challenges. A concerted effort is required to improve hypertension management and outcomes in conflict-affected populations.
