Application research on the quantitative evaluation of carotid arterial elasticity in overweight adolescents using ultra-fast pulse wave technology.

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
Background: Overweight and obesity in adolescents has become a new worldwide health problem. Overweight in adolescence not only leads to persistent overweight and even obesity in adulthood, but also leads to decreased arterial function in adolescence and a greatly increased incidence of chronic diseases in adulthood. However, current imaging techniques cannot detect the early decrease of arterial elasticity. In this study, Ultrafast pulse wave velocity (UFPWV) technology was used to quantitatively evaluate the carotid artery elasticity in adolescents with simple overweight. In order to find the changes of carotid artery elasticity and related influencing factors in overweight adolescents at an early stage. Data and methods: A total of 56 adolescents who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in this study, including 30 adolescents with Body mass index (BMI) ≥24kg/m Results: The mean values of IMT, PWVBS and PWVES in overweight group were higher than those in normal group. There was significant difference between PWVBS and PWVES ( Conclusion: UFPWV can detect early changes in carotid artery elasticity in overweight adolescents. When hyperlipidemia and hyperuricemia coexist, they exert a synergistic detrimental effect on arterial elastic function. The arterial elasticity indexes PWVBS and PWVES are significantly correlated with a variety of traditional risk factors of atherosclerosis (AS), which can be used AS effective indicators to predict early AS.
