Rationale and design of a study comparing two fixed-dose combination regimens to reduce albuminuria in patients with type II diabetes and hypertension.
Trial report in Journal of human hypertension, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The early stage of nephropathy is manifested by the presence of low levels of urinary albumin (microalbuminuria or urinary albumin excretion >or=30 and <299 mg/day). Albuminuria is a marker for development of nephropathy in type II diabetes and for increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of antihypertensive agents that inhibit the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAA) system to reduce the risk and slow down the progression of renal disease. A new clinical trial, GUARD (Gauging Albuminuria Reduction With Lotrel in Diabetic Patients With Hypertension), is designed to compare the change in urinary albumin to creatinine ratio after 1 year of initial treatment with either amlodipine besylate/benazepril HCl or benazepril HCl/hydrochlorothiazide. Other objectives include a comparison of the proportion of patients who progress to overt diabetic nephropathy and the safety of these two combination therapies in these high-risk patients.
