Childhood obesity, arterial stiffness, and prevalence and treatment of hypertension.
Article in Current treatment options in cardiovascular medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
opinion statementChildhood obesity is associated with progressive vascular dysfunction as manifest by arterial stiffness and elevated blood pressure with associated subsequent morbidity and mortality because of early cardiovascular events including myocardial infarction and stroke in adulthood. Consequently, the recent dramatic increases in childhood obesity around the world present a hitherto unforeseen public health concern. While coordinated primary prevention efforts remain an ongoing important focus of action, identification and treatment of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors in pediatric patients is necessary given the existing burden of disease and future health consequences. Lifestyle interventions remain a cornerstone of our therapeutic approach, however, medical therapy is needed in some cases and should not be underutilized based on patient age. Herein, we discuss the relationship between childhood obesity and hypertension with a key emphasis on the evolution of adaptive and maladaptive vascular changes in the genesis of overt cardiovascular disease.
