Cardiac autonomic function in young, healthy adults: Influence of race and sex.
Article in American journal of physiology. Regulatory, integrative and comparative physiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Non-Hispanic Black (BL) adults living in the United States are more likely to develop cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared with their non-Hispanic White (WH) counterparts. Although measures of cardiac autonomic function [i.e., spontaneous cardiac baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and heart rate variability (HRV)] have a predictive value for CVD, studies investigating racial differences in cardiac autonomic function are limited and have reported conflicting results. Furthermore, sex differences are often not considered despite BL women having a high prevalence of CVD. We hypothesized that young BL men and women would exhibit lower cardiac BRS and HRV compared with their WH counterparts. Heart rate and beat-to-beat blood pressure were continuously recorded during 5 min of supine rest in 145 young (18-33 yr), healthy, BL (37 men, 38 women) and WH (39 men, 31 women) adults to assess cardiac BRS and HRV. Overall cardiac BRS (sequence method) was higher in BL adults compared with WH adults (
