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

Introduction: When coupled with clinical supports, self-measured blood pressure (SMBP) monitoring has been shown to be effective at lowering blood pressure for people with hypertension, with positive impacts on health equity. Methods: This analysis uses nationwide Medicaid claims data to examine trends in SMBP use (ie, use of SMBP services and/or devices) at the national and state levels from 2018 to 2022 among adult Medicaid enrollees. Results: Rates of SMBP use spiked during the pandemic and subsequently decreased, although rates are still higher than those observed pre-pandemic, and utilization varied considerably by state. Conclusion: Future research should seek to improve understanding of factors driving state variation in SMBP use.
