Central Pressure Waveform-Derived Indexes Obtained From Carotid and Radial Tonometry and Brachial Oscillometry in Healthy Subjects (2-84 Y): Age-, Height-, and Sex-Related Profiles and Analysis of Indexes Agreement.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Aortic blood pressure (aoBP) waveform-derived indexes could provide valuable (prognostic) information over and above cardiovascular risk factors (CRFs). To obtain aoBP waveform-characteristics, several (i) techniques, (ii) recording sites, (iii) pressure-only waveform analysis mathematical approaches [e.g., pulse wave analysis (PWA), wave separation analysis (WSA)], and (iv) indexes [augmentation pressure and index (AP and AIx), forward (Pf) and backward (Pb) components of aoBP, reflection magnitude (RM), and reflection index (Rix)], were proposed. An accurate clinical use of these indexes requires knowing their physiological age-related profiles and the expected values for a specific subject. There are no works that have characterized waveform-derived indexes profiles in large populations considering: (i) as a continuous, data from different age stages (childhood, adolescence, and adulthood), (ii) complementary indexes, (iii) data obtained from different techniques and approaches, and (iv) analyzing potential sex- and body height (BH)-related differences. In addition, (v) there is a lack of normative data (reference intervals, RIs) for waveform-derived indexes.
aims(1) to evaluate the association and agreement between PWA- and/or WSA-derived indexes obtained with different techniques and approaches; (2) to determine the need for sex-, BH-, and/or age-specific RIs; (3) to define RIs for PWA- and WSA-derived indexes in a large cohort of healthy children, adolescents, and adults.
methods3619 subjects (3-90 y) were included; 1688 healthy (2-84 y). AP, AIx, AIx@75, Pf, Pb, RM, and RIx were obtained (carotid and radial tonometry, brachial oscillometry/plethysmography). The association and agreement between indexes were analyzed (Concordance correlation coefficients, Bland-Altman analysis). Mean and SD equations and sex-specific BH- and age-related profiles were obtained (regression methods; fractional polynomials).
resultsWaveform-derived indexes were not equivalent; for a specific index, there were systematic and proportional differences associated with the recording site (e.g., carotid
