Trial report in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00430638 (A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Compare the Safety and Efficacy of an Olmesartan Medoxomil Based Treatment Regimen to Placebo in Patients With Stage I and Stage II Hypertension), which is not on this map.

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.

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.

Abstract

The efficacy and safety of an olmesartan medoxomil (OM)-based treatment algorithm was tested in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled titration study in 276 patients with stage 1 or 2 hypertension. After placebo run-in, patients were randomized to placebo (12 weeks) or OM 20 mg/d (weeks 1-3). OM was up-titrated to 40 mg/d (weeks 4-6), then OM/hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 40/12.5 mg/d (weeks 7-9) and OM/HCTZ 40/25 mg/d (weeks 10-12) were started if blood pressure (BP) remained > or =120/80 mm Hg at each time interval. End points were change from baseline in mean systolic BP (primary) and mean diastolic BP (secondary). OM-based treatment was well tolerated and changed BP by -22.3/-12.1 mm Hg from baseline vs -0.1/+0.8 mm Hg for placebo (P<.0001). Cumulative goal BP (<140/90 mm Hg) was achieved in 74.1% and 30.7% of OM- compared with placebo-treated patients, respectively (P<.0001). BP normalized (<120/80 mm Hg) in 44.8% of OM- vs 1.4% of placebo-treated patients with stage 1 hypertension (P<.0001).
