Association of orthostatic hypertension identified according to different definitions with cardiovascular disease. The PARTAGE study.
Article in Journal of hypertension, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveDiagnostic criteria for an exaggerated BP increase in response to standing (ERTS) are still debated making it difficult to interpret data regarding the cardiovascular risk associated with ERTS. The aim of the present study was to identify the ERTS definition that was most strongly associated with cardiovascular disease. DESIGN AND
methodsThe study was conducted within the frame of the PARTAGE study, in 920 individuals aged 80 years or older. BP was measured 1 min and 3 min after standing up. Participants were classified into three groups according to whether they had normal response to standing (reference group), orthostatic hypotension, or ERTS defined using 16 different definitions. The risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes was explored by means of multivariable survival Cox analyses.
resultsERTS was associated with both cardiovascular events and mortality when it was identified according to three definitions: SBP ≥20 mmHg in either orthostatic measurement [hazard ratios (HRs) (95% confidence interval, CI), 1.45 (1.03-2.03; P = 0.031)] and 1.71 (1.05-2.77; P = 0.030), respectively; SBP ≥15 mmHg in either orthostatic measurement ((1.43 (1.03-1.99; P = 0.032) and 1.82 (1.12-2.94; P = 0.015)), respectively; and SBP ≥20 mmHg and/or DBP ≥15 mmHg in either orthostatic measurement ((1.42 (1.03-1.98; P = 0.035) and 1.94 (1.19-3.17; P = 0.008)), respectively. The best model fit was found for SBP and DBP combined. No independent association with both outcomes was found for other ERTS definitions.
conclusionsThe present results show that an SBP increase of >15-20 mmHg is a more important prognostic indicator than less pronounced increases of SBP. However, associating also an increase in DBP of ≥15 mmHg slightly increased the predictive value of ERTS.
