East and South Asian-Specific Blood Pressure Trajectories and Cardiovascular Disease.

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
backgroundCardiovascular disease (CVD) risk differs across Asian subgroups, possibly due to differences in hypertension burden. We characterized lifetime blood pressure (BP) trajectories for East and South Asian individuals and compared their associations with CVD risk.
methodsAmong 148 872 UK Biobank participants with primary care utilization data, life course BP trajectories were fitted as a function of age by sex according to self-identified ethnicity. We determined associations of time-averaged young adulthood (18-39 years), middle age (40-64 years), and later life (≥65 years) systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP with incident atherosclerotic CVD risk.
resultsThe predicted SBP/diastolic BP (95% CI) at age 30 years was 108 (103-114)/68 (65-71) mm Hg for East Asian and 114 (110-118)/72 (71-73) mm Hg for South Asian individuals. By age 40, South Asian individuals were projected to reach an SBP of 130.0 mm Hg, whereas East Asian individuals reached the equivalent SBP by age 49 years. Among South Asian individuals, each SD increase in young adulthood SBP was associated with a higher atherosclerotic CVD risk with an odds ratio (95% CI) of 1.41 (1.12-1.75), but not among East Asians (
conclusionsEast and South Asian individuals exhibit distinct BP trajectories that age-differentially associate with incident CVD. Disaggregating Asian subgroups may inform tailored hypertension screening and management.
