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

Interpretation of some recent trials in hypertension opened a debate on the clinical value of new-onset diabetes in treated hypertensive patients. It is not completely clear whether certain antihypertensive drug classes are associated with a higher risk for developing type 2 diabetes when compared with other classes. Some longitudinal studies suggest that new-onset diabetes in treated hypertensive subjects carries a risk for subsequent cardiovascular disease similar to that of previously known diabetes. In a study, plasma glucose before treatment and diuretic treatment were independent predictors of new-onset diabetes in hypertensive patients, independent of confounding factors. We estimated that one cardiovascular event associated with new-onset diabetes might be prevented for every 385 to 449 patients treated with "new," rather than "old," antihypertensive drugs for approximately 4 years. These observations suggest that concern about the risk for new-onset diabetes should prompt a more judicious use of diuretics and beta-blockers in the treatment of hypertension. These drugs should be given cautiously in subjects who are at increased risk for new-onset diabetes, owing to impaired fasting glucose or obesity. The lowest effective dose should be used, and plasma glucose should be carefully monitored.
