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

Systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV) and arterial stiffness index (ASI) are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), but their independent and combined effects remain unclear. This study investigated their associations using data from 28,792 UK Biobank participants without CVD at baseline. SBPV and ASI were categorized into quartiles, and Cox regression was used to assess their effects on CVD risk. Over an average follow-up of 12.29 years, 3,967 CVD events occurred. Higher SBPV and ASI were independently associated with increased CVD risk (SBPV Q4: HR 1.25 [1.14-1.38]; ASI Q4: HR 1.24 [1.12-1.36]). A multiplicative interaction was observed (p = 0.019), and their combined effect further elevated risk (SBPV Q4 + ASI Q4: HR 1.63 [1.32-2.02]). These findings suggest SBPV and ASI independently and jointly contribute to CVD risk, highlighting the need for targeted interventions.
