Isolated nocturnal hypertension and its association with sleep duration and quality.
Article in Journal of human hypertension, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) is associated with cardiovascular events independently of daytime BP. Isolated nocturnal hypertension (INH), defined by elevated nocturnal BP with normal daytime BP, increases cardiovascular risk. However, its underlying; mechanisms remain unclear. This study aims to assess the association between nocturnal BP and INH with sleep quality and duration. This cross-sectional study analyzed 2297 individuals (57% women, 49.5 ± 15 years) using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) to evaluate the relationship between INH and sleep quality. Individuals with secondary hypertension and sleep disorders were excluded. Sleep quality and duration were primarily assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the STOP-BANG score. Results showed that 64% had poor sleep quality (PSQI > 5), and 18.7% slept less than 6 h. No significant differences in sleep quality were found among hypertensive phenotypes. INH was associated with older age, diabetes, and waist circumference; however, sleep quality and duration were not independent factors in its development. Nonetheless, nocturnal BP exhibited a slight association with sleep quality and disturbances of mild clinical significance.
