Comparison of blood pressure control with amlodipine and controlled-release isradipine: an open-label, drug substitution study.
Trial report in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
An open-label drug substitution study showed that controlled-release isradipine (Dynacirc-CR) can be safely substituted for amlodipine on a mg-for-mg basis in patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension. When controlled-release isradipine was substituted for amlodipine, blood pressure was more effectively controlled, and edema rates were reduced. When subjects resumed amlodipine therapy, the previous gain in blood pressure reduction and lessening of edema vanished. The basis for this more favorable pattern of efficacy and side-effects with controlled-release isradipine, although mechanistically unresolved, may relate to a lesser degree of sympathetic nervous system activation.
