1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Sex differences in blood pressure (BP) levels and hypertension are important and the role of socioeconomic status (SES) in sex differences in hypertension remains unclear. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of SES on sex differences of hypertension in a nationally representative survey study. Methods: A total of 98,658 participants aged ≥18 years who have lived in their current residence for ≥6 months were recruited from 162 study sites across mainland China. Sex was self-reported. Individual-level SES included the highest level of education and annual household income. Area-level SES included economic development status, urban/rural residency, and north/south location. Outcomes included levels of systolic and diastolic BP, and hypertension. Linear and Cox regression models were used to examine the associations between sex (women vs men) and BP characteristics stratified by individual or combined SES indicators. Results: Systolic and diastolic BP levels and the prevalence of hypertension were higher in men than in women. This sex difference was found across categories of SES with widened sex disparities in participants having more favorable SES. Significant multiplicative interaction effects of SES on the association of sex with BP characteristics were found. Women with improving SES were associated with lower BP and hypertension prevalence compared to men. For combined SES, a 9% (prevalence ratio 0.91, 95% CI 0.83-0.98) and a 30% lower probability (prevalence ratio 0.70, 95% CI 0.63-0.78) of having hypertension were found in women with an overall intermediate SES and high SES, respectively, compared to those with low SES, while no significant reduction was found in men. Conclusions: There are significant sex differences in BP characteristics and SES has a potent impact on the disparities. Sex-specific public health policies to alleviate socioeconomic inequalities, especially in women are important for the prevention of hypertension.
