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

purpose of reviewThis review synthesizes evidence on the association between sleep and hypertension from the past five years, with an emphasis on sex differences in blood pressure regulation. RECENT

findingsSleep is a modifiable risk factor for hypertension. In addition to overall sleep quality and duration, sleep disorders such as insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea are associated with elevated blood pressure. Emerging evidence suggests that these relations may differ by sex, reflecting variations in sleep characteristics, disorder presentation, and susceptibility to blood pressure dysregulation. Together, these findings support the concept of sleep as a multidimensional determinant of cardiovascular risk with different outcome presentation by sex. Sleep represents a clinically relevant and modifiable target for hypertension prevention and management and should be incorporated into cardiovascular risk assessment and clinical care. Sex-specific hormonal influences and autonomic dysfunction may contribute to the differences in associations between sleep disturbances and hypertension risk between males and females. Recognizing these mechanisms may inform more targeted strategies to reduce hypertension risk.
