The Association of Insomnia and the Subsequent Cerebrovascular Accident in the Hypertension Population.

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
BACKGROUND/
aimHypertension is a vascular condition associated with an increased risk of cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs). Insomnia has also been linked to various neurological disorders, including CVA. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the potential association between insomnia and subsequent CVA development in a hypertensive population. PATIENTS AND
methodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted, enrolling patients with hypertension who were then categorized into groups based on the presence or absence of insomnia. Each group comprised 244,397 patients. The primary outcomes were the occurrences of CVAs, including both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to calculate the adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for these outcomes to compare the insomnia and non-insomnia groups.
resultsThere were 22,608 ischemic strokes and 3,390 hemorrhagic strokes in the non-insomnia group, compared to 22,669 ischemic strokes and 3,484 hemorrhagic strokes in the insomnia group. The incidence of ischemic stroke (aHR=1.063; 95%CI=1.041-1.085;
conclusionIn individuals with hypertension, the presence of insomnia is associated with a significantly higher risk of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke.
