The Association Between Short-Term Blood Pressure Variability and Inflammation in Healthy Young Adults.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Blood pressure variability (BPV) is linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and systemic inflammation in adults, but its relevance in young, healthy populations remains unclear. This study examined the association between short-term BPV and inflammatory markers in 447 normotensive participants (mean age, 22.9 years) from the Georgia Stress and Heart (GSH) study, a cohort of Non-Hispanic Black and White individuals. Participants underwent 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and assessment of serum inflammatory markers, including hs-CRP, IFN-γ, IL-6, and TNF-α. BPV was quantified using average real variability (ARV), and generalized estimating equations (GEEs) were used to evaluate associations, adjusting for age, sex, race, and mean blood pressure. Diastolic BPV was significantly, positively associated with hs-CRP and TNF-α, whereas systolic BPV was not associated with any inflammatory marker. Specifically, 24 h diastolic BPV was positively associated with hs-CRP (
