Inadequate sleep is a risk factor for pediatric hypertension: the pathophysiologic and socioeconomic correlates.
Review in Pediatric research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 increasing prevalence of pediatric hypertension is concerning to our population because cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death in adults. Studies have shown that sleep disturbances in children, such as sleep fragmentation, increase blood pressure and lead to adult hypertension. However, the mechanisms by which this occurs are not fully understood. Most studies regarding sleep disturbances and hypertension are within adults, leaving the adolescent population understudied. In this review, we will describe the physiology of sleep, compare blood pressure variations between adults and adolescents, and discuss social issues regarding sleep fragmentation in children. In addition, we will also discuss the limitations of the studies available and what future research needs to be conducted. IMPACT: Pediatric hypertension is a complex condition that has various underlying causes, thus making treatments complicated. We describe the physiology of sleep, compare blood pressure variations between adults and adolescents, and discuss social issues regarding sleep fragmentation in children. We synthesize and connect studies to enhance knowledge of the issues that lead to the development of hypertension in pediatrics. We show the limitations of previous studies and describe future research that can further our understanding in the development of pediatric hypertension.
