Adverse social determinants of health elevate uncontrolled hypertension risk: a cardio-oncology prospective cohort study.
Article in JNCI cancer spectrum, 2024. 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
The role of social determinants of health (SDOH) in controlling hypertension (HTN) in cancer patients is unknown. We hypothesize that high SDOH scores correlate with uncontrolled HTN in hypertensive cancer patients. In our prospective study, patients completed the Protocol for Responding to & Assessing Patients' Assets, Risks & Experiences questionnaire. After integrating home and clinic blood pressure readings, uncontrolled HTN was defined as systolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 90 mm Hg. Using Cox regression, we analyzed the impact of SDOH on HTN control, adjusting for relevant factors. The study involved 318 participants (median age 66.4, median follow-up 166 days, SDOH score 6.5 ± 3.2), with stress, educational insecurity, and social isolation as prevalent adverse SDOH. High SDOH scores led to 77% increased risk of uncontrolled HTN (adjusted hazards ratio = 1.77; 95% confidence interval = 1.10 to 2.83, P = .018). Urban residents with high SDOH scores were at an even greater risk. Identifying SDOH and mitigating underlying factors may help control HTN, the most typical disease process treated in all cardio-oncology clinics.
