Clinical relevance of about-yearly changes in blood pressure and the environment.
Review in International journal of biometeorology, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Changes identified by inferential statistics from summer to winter of high to low arterial blood pressures (BP) have been quantified as a large predictable about-yearly BP swing. This condition of a large annual BP amplitude (LABPA) raises concern about hypotension as well as hypertension and raises new questions regarding appropriate guidelines for diagnosis and treatment. Recommendations made in the fall on the basis of data collected in the summer may be totally inadequate in dealing with the patient's condition in the winter. In order to avoid such mistakes, it is imperative to implement a systematic surveillance of BP in the light of current chronobiological limits. Patients with a large circannual BP amplitude are particularly suited for a study of the underlying hormonal mechanisms. The longitudinal monitoring of their BP is also amenable to the study of environmental influences from near and far.
