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

Background and Aim: Serum uric acid (SUA) has long been linked to elevated blood pressure (BP) in observational clinical studies. Nonetheless, data regarding the correlation between SUA and BP are controversial in randomized controlled trials and mendelian randomization research. Furthermore, it is yet unknown if there is a reciprocal relationship between SUA and BP. This study was conducted to explore the temporal relationship between SUA and BP and related risk factors. Methods: In this cohort study, 27,581 participants free of hypertension and cardiovascular disease from 2010 to 2016 in the Kailuan study were included. Cross-lagged studies with repeated evaluation of BP and SUA were applied to identify the temporal relationship between SUA and BP. The brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were conducted to evaluate the mediation impact on the correlation between SUA and BP among 6761 participants via mediation analysis. Results: The cross-lagged path coefficient of baseline SUA and follow-up systolic BP (β2) was 0.06 (95% CI, 0.03-0.08) in the participants with the age of ≤ 45 ( Conclusion: SUA may be a precursor to raised BP in young men, vascular stiffness mediated the positive correlation between BP and SUA. Trial Registration: ChiCTR-TNC-11001489.
