Blood Pressure and Glycemic Control Among Ambulatory US Adults With Heart Failure: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2001 to 2018.
Article in Circulation. Heart failure, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundMultisociety guidelines recommend a goal systolic blood pressure (BP) <130 mm Hg and a hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) <8% in patients with heart failure (HF), regardless of ejection fraction. Few studies have described BP and glycemic control in ambulatory patients with HF and racial and ethnic disparities in this subset of the population.
methodsWe evaluated prevalence of uncontrolled BP and HbA1c in non-Hispanic Black, non-Hispanic White, and Mexican American adults aged ≥20 years with self-reported HF (National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys: 2001-2018). Prevalence ratios (95% CI) for uncontrolled BP and HbA1c were calculated by race and ethnicity and adjusted for sex, age, treatment, and socioeconomic status. In secondary analyses, we examined trends in the prevalence of uncontrolled BP and HbA1c.
resultsUncontrolled BP was present in 48% (95% CI, 49%-56%) of adults with HF (representing 2.3 million people). Non-Hispanic Black participants had a higher prevalence of uncontrolled BP compared with non-Hispanic White participants (53% [48%-58%] compared with 47% [43%-51%],
conclusionsWe document an unacceptably high prevalence of uncontrolled BP and HbA1c in a nationally representative, ambulatory HF sample with significant differences in BP control by race and ethnicity.
