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
objectivePrevious research on depressive symptoms with incident hypertension has yielded mixed results, and this relationship has not been studied in a diverse group of Hispanic/Latino adults.
methodsWe studied 5927 Hispanic/Latino adults aged 18-74 years from four U.S. cities who attended baseline (2008-2011) and follow-up (2014-2017) examinations of the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos. Baseline depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale-10; clinically relevant depressive symptoms were defined as ≥10 points. Blood pressure (BP) was measured using a standardized protocol at both examinations. Hypertension was defined as measured systolic BP ≥130 mmHg, or diastolic BP ≥80 mmHg, or self-reported antihypertension medication use. Analyses accounted for the complex survey design.
resultsAmong 5927 persons without hypertension at baseline, the six-year age-adjusted incidence rates of hypertension were 40 and 31 per 1000 person-years among those with and without elevated depressive symptoms, respectively. Persons with elevated depressive symptoms had a 25 % (p = .003) higher 6-year incidence of hypertension than those with fewer symptoms, after adjusting for sociodemographic and clinical covariates. There was an interaction between depressive symptoms and age (p
conclusionsThese findings suggest that depressive symptoms are a risk factor for hypertension in young Hispanic/Latino adults. Early screening and treatment of depressive symptoms may aid in the prevention of hypertension.
