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

In the last years there has been increasing evidence suggesting that the treatment of cardiovascular risk factors must be done on a global rather than on a separate approach, because they have additive effects and share common pathways leading to atherothrombosis. Of special interest is the relationship between hypertension and dyslipidemia. An excessive activity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), that plays an important role in hypertension, contributes to endothelial dysfunction, vascular inflammation and thrombosis. Dyslipidemia induces the same effects through similar mechanisms. In fact, combined therapy with statins and RAS modulators shows synergic beneficial effects in the treatment of atherosclerosis. Then, in the future, the traditional hypertension and dyslipidemia units should probably evolve into global cardiovascular risk management Units. Also, polypills combining antihypertensive and lipid-lowering drugs will make easier the treatment of these conditions. These changes would provide us the necessary tools to treat our patients in accordance with the current strategies of cardiovascular therapy and prevention.
