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

Elevated blood pressure in children is related to the hypertension in adults. Reducing environmental factors linked to hypertension in children is necessary to prevent hypertension in adults. To investigate the associations between outdoor artificial light at night (ALAN) and blood pressure among children. We recruited 9354 children aged 5-17 in the Seven Northeastern Cities Study between 2012 and 2013. Trained nurses measured their blood pressure with a mercury sphygmomanometer. We defined hypertension as systolic blood pressure (SBP) or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥95th age-sex-height-specific percentile. We geocoded the address of each child and linked it to estimated outdoor ALAN within 500 m (ALAN
