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

Diagnosis of hypertension is critically dependent on accurate blood pressure (BP) measurement, especially in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), in whom early antihypertensive treatment is imperative to prevent cardiovascular events. Ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) has successfully identified hypertensive patients at increased risk, but its role in management of CKD patients is not well defined. Loss of the nocturnal decline in BP, which is common in CKD, is associated with adverse cardiovascular events. Increased BP variability has been documented as related to worse outcome, and patients on dialysis are subject to marked BP swings. Traditional measurement in the office fails to provide a thorough picture of the 24-hour BP pattern in CKD patients. Thus, ABPM appears mandatory to better define the hypertensive status in these subjects because it provides information on diurnal BP rhythm and variability and allows identification of subjects with white-coat and masked hypertension.
