Interaction effect of hypertension and obesity on left atrial phasic function: a three-dimensional echocardiography study.

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
Background: Hypertension (HT) and obesity often coexist and contribute to left atrial (LA) dysfunction. The present study aimed to compare LA function in hypertensive individuals and control participants with different body mass index (BMI) categories and to explore whether there is an interaction effect between HT and obesity on LA function. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a total of 258 individuals (145 hypertensive and 113 non-hypertensive patients) were prospectively enrolled from Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital from September 2020 to November 2021. Hypertensive and non-hypertensive patients were both divided into three study subgroups (n=35 per group) according to their BMI: normal weight (BMI 18.5-<25 kg/m Results: A significant interaction effect between HT and obesity on LA function was observed [P Conclusions: Both HT and increasing BMI category had an adverse effect on LA function. The coexistence of HT and obesity further impaired LA performance in an interaction manner. Weight loss is essential to reduce the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in hypertensive patients.
