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: Although the association between C-reactive protein (CRP) and hypertension has been acknowledged, the associations between parental high-sensitive CRP (hs-CRP) levels and offspring hypertension remain unexplored. To investigate the relationship between parental and offspring hs-CRP levels, as well as the association between parental hs-CRP levels and offspring hypertension. Methods: We included 6,848 father-offspring and 1,588 mother-offspring pairs from the Kailuan study. Time-weighted average hs-CRP (TWA-CRP) was calculated by cumulative hs-CRP/Time Results: The regression coefficient and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for offspring TWA-CRP were 0.50 (0.38-0.62) in father-offspring pairs and 0.53 (0.29-0.76) in mother-offspring pairs with high parental TWA-CRP. The odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs for offspring hypertension were 1.30 (1.11-1.52) in father-offspring pairs and 1.32 (0.95-1.84) in mother-offspring pairs with high parental TWA-CRP. When both parent and offspring had a high TWA-CRP, the ORs (95% CIs) for offspring hypertension were 1.92 (1.43-2.56) in father-offspring pairs and 2.44 (1.35-4.35) in mother-offspring pairs. The hazard ratios and 95% CIs for offspring hypertension were 1.43 (1.15-1.76) in father-offspring pairs and 2.48 (1.18-5.22) in mother-offspring pairs with high offspring TWA-CRP. Conclusions: Parental high TWA-CRP may increase the risk of offspring hypertension. Trial Registration: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry Identifier: ChiCTR2000029767.
