1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: The Tohoku Medical Megabank (TMM) was established for creative reconstruction from the Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami in 2011. Two prospective genome cohort studies in Miyagi prefecture have successfully recruited approximately 127,000 participants. The health status of these individuals was evaluated at the initial recruitment, and follow-up health checkups have been conducted every 5 years. During these health checkups, unexpected critical values were encountered, which prompted us to develop an urgent notification system. Methods: We analyzed the frequency of critical values observed in home blood pressure (HBP) test in an urgent notification office (UNO). We returned the critical values by urgent notification before the notifications of regular results. In addition, the impact of the TMM urgent notification on the participants was evaluated. Results: We issued urgent notifications of the critical values of extremely high HBP. Of the 21,061 participants who underwent HBP measurements, 256 (1.2%) met the criteria for urgent notification. It was found that abnormalities in blood sugar levels, renal function, and lipid values were frequently concurrent with the abnormal HBP readings. Annual questionnaires administered after the urgent notification, approximately 60% of those went to hospitals or clinics. Conclusions: The urgent notification system for hypertensive emergency with HBP in the TMM was well accepted by the participants and encouraged them to seek medical care. The system has been useful in addressing the prolonged healthcare problems and in promoting health care in large-scale disaster damaged areas.
