Trunk-to-Appendicular Fat Ratio and Blood Pressure: Survey-Weighted Regression, Spline Modeling, and Exploratory Lipid Attenuation Analysis.
Article in International journal of hypertension, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Central adiposity is closely linked to blood pressure (BP), yet body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) may not fully capture fat distribution. We analyzed 4307 adults from NHANES 2011-2018 with whole-body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to examine whether the trunk-to-appendicular fat ratio (TAR), a marker of trunk-predominant adiposity, was associated with BP. Survey-weighted multivariable linear regression and restricted cubic spline models were applied. TAR showed the strongest correlation with systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) (
