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
Hypertension is a common and serious complication after renal transplantation. It is an important risk factor for graft loss and morbidity and mortality of transplanted children. The etiology of posttransplant hypertension is multifactorial: native kidneys, immunosuppressive therapy, renal-graft artery stenosis, and chronic allograft nephropathy are the most common causes. Blood pressure (BP) in transplanted children should be measured not only by casual BP (CBP) measurement but also regularly by ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM). The prevalence of posttransplant hypertension ranges between 60% and 90% depending on the method of BP measurement and definition. Left ventricular hypertrophy is a frequent type of end-organ damage in hypertensive children after transplantation (50-80%). All classes of antihypertensive drugs can be used in the treatment of posttransplant hypertension. Hypertension control in transplanted children is poor; only 20-50% of treated children reach normal BP. The reason for this poor control seems to be inadequate antihypertensive therapy, which can be improved by increasing the number of antihypertensive drugs. Improved hypertension control leads to improved long-term graft and patient survival in adults. In children, there is a great potential for antihypertensive treatment that could also result in improved graft and patient survival.
