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

backgroundAmong middle-aged and older adults, home blood pressure (BP) monitoring (HBPM) is a tool for both diagnosis and management of hypertension. Pediatric guidelines recommend HBPM as an adjunct to office BP measurement among children and adolescents with hypertension. Little is known about the prevalence and frequency of HBPM in the United States among youth with hypertension, and what factors are associated with HBPM use.

methodsWe examined data from NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) 2009-2014 cycles to determine HBPM use in adolescents (16 to <20 years) and young adults (20 to <25 years), n = 2,919. HBPM frequency was defined as none, less than once a month, or at least monthly. Using multivariable logistic regression, we assessed the association between HBPM and sociodemographic factors including age, sex, race/ethnicity, obesity, income, insurance status, and education.

resultsAn estimated 10.3% of adolescents and young adults reported performing HBPM in the past year. Of those with hypertension, 22.8% reported performing any HBPM in the past year. Compared to adolescents, a higher percentage of young adults reported performing HBPM (12.5% vs. 7.3%). In adjusted models, having health insurance (odds ratio [OR] 1.84 [95% confidence interval {CI} 1.25-2.73]), high school education or greater (OR 1.79 [95% CI 1.13-2.82]), and obesity (OR 1.83 [95% CI 1.10-3.05]) were associated with reporting any HBPM use.

conclusionsIn this analysis of nationally representative US data, HBPM was reported in less than a quarter of adolescents and young adults with hypertension. Obesity, insurance status, and education were associated with any HBPM use.
