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

backgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with increased arterial stiffness indicated by isolated systolic hypertension (ISH). Whether the prevalence of ISH and other hypertension (HTN) subtypes differs by DM status and how they relate to outcomes remains unclear.

objectivesThe objective of the study was to compare by DM status the association of HTN subtypes with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality.

methodsThe authors included data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey with mortality follow-up until 2019. The authors used HTN thresholds of 130/80 mm Hg to define ISH, isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH), and systolic-diastolic hypertension (SDH). The incidence of CVD and all-cause mortality was examined among hypertensive subtypes using multivariable Cox regression.

resultsA total of 52,385 individuals (projected to 207 million) were included, of which 12% (25 M) had DM. In those with vs without DM, 23% vs 57% were normotensive, 5% vs 9% had IDH, 39% vs 18% had ISH, and 16% vs 13% had SDH (all P < 0.01). Analyses adjusted for age, sex, and other risk factors showed significantly increased risks for CVD and all-cause mortality with ISH (HR: 1.19; P < 0.01 and HR: 1.15; P < 0.01, respectively) and SDH (HR: 1.29; P < 0.01 and HR: 1.18; P < 0.01) but not IDH in patients without DM (HR: 0.76; P = 0.32 and HR: 0.86; P = 0.20); in patients with DM, this risk was increased in patients with ISH (HR: 1.57; P < 0.01 and HR: 1.46; P < 0.01], SDH (HR: 2.11; P < 0.01 and HR: 1.68; P < 0.01), and IDH (HR: 3.65; P < 0.01 and HR: 1.97; P < 0.01) (interaction P < 0.01 for all subtypes by DM status).

conclusionsHTN subtypes were significantly associated with increased CVD and all-cause mortality in patients with DM more strongly than in those without DM, suggesting greater importance of controlling all HTN subtypes in those with DM.
