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: Hypertension (HTN) is a major global public health issue influenced by genetics and lifestyle factors such as diet and psychological stress. Previous research suggests a potential link between HTN and dietary vitamin A intake. This study aims to explore the association between HTN and the intake of various forms of vitamin A. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 1239 patients with HTN and 2945 normotensive individuals aged 35-70 years in Sabzevar, Iran. Dietary vitamin A intake was assessed using the Nutritionist IV software and a food frequency questionnaire. Result: A positive association was found between HTN with total vitamin A intake [odds ratio (OR): 1.03, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.05, Conclusion: Increased dietary intake of vitamin A and β-carotene may be associated with a higher risk of HTN. Further longitudinal studies are needed to confirm these findings and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
