Efficacy of indapamide 1.5 mg, sustained release, in the lowering of systolic blood pressure.
Review in Journal of human hypertension, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The relationship between the increase in blood pressure and the incidence of cardiovascular disease is well recognized today. Studies have shown that more attention should be paid to systolic blood pressure (SBP) in relation to cardiovascular risk and that therapeutic interventions should preferably focus on reducing SBP. The antihypertensive efficacy of indapamide 1.5 mg sustained release (indapamide SR), a low-dose thiazide-type diuretic, was assessed on SBP. Three randomized, double-blind, controlled studies were conducted with indapamide SR, over a period of 3 to 12 months. Elderly patients or patients with target-organ damage, hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) (LIVE study) or with type II diabetes with microalbuminuria (NESTOR study) showed a decrease in SBP varying from 22.7 to 31.8 mmHg. The treatment with indapamide SR resulted in a better or equivalent control of SBP than treatment with a standard dose of a true thiazide diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide), a calcium channel blocker (amlodipine), and an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (enalapril). No therapeutic escape was observed. All treatments showed good acceptability with no unexpected adverse event. In conclusion, indapamide SR is very effective in lowering SBP-a major independent cardiovascular risk factor-notably in hypertensive high-risk patients with LVH, the elderly and diabetics, when compared to major antihypertensive treatments. This SBP-lowering effect is maintained over the long term.
