Incidencia y transiciones de presión arterial en trabajadores: análisis longitudinal.
Article in Archivos de cardiologia de Mexico, 2025. 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
objectiveIntermediate blood pressure states, such as high-normal blood pressure and prehypertension, represent a continuous spectrum of cardiovascular risk. Their natural history in the working population has not been fully characterized. The objective of this study was to describe the transitions between different blood pressure states (normopressure, prehypertension, and hypertension) and to analyze their trajectories during a 7-year follow-up in an occupational cohort.
methodRetrospective longitudinal study including 12,027 workers evaluated between 2013 and 2021. They were classified as normotension < 120/80 mmHg and hypertension ≥ 140/90 mmHg. Intermediate states were analyzed using two categories: prehypertension with 120-139/80-89 mmHg and high-normal blood pressure with 130-139/85-89 mmHg. Incidence rates were calculated and evolutionary trajectories were analyzed.
resultsThe incidence of prehypertension was 25.80 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI: 25.05-26.55), higher than high-normal blood pressure (9.64; 95% CI: 9.25-10.03) and hypertension (9.86; 95% CI: 9.54-10.19). In the transition analysis, of the workers who started with normopressure, 60.1% progressed to prehypertension and 26.7% developed hypertension. Of those with initial prehypertension, 49.7% remained in their state and 43.8% progressed to hypertension. In the alternative classification, 21.2% progressed from normopressure to high-normal blood pressure, and of the latter, 55.9% developed hypertension.
conclusionsIntermediate blood pressure states show distinctive patterns of progression, with significant transition rates toward hypertension. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening occupational surveillance and developing early preventive interventions in workers with intermediate blood pressure states.
