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

We evaluated the renoprotective effects of adding aliskiren to treatment with losartan in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy. A total of 599 patients were randomized to six months of treatment with placebo or aliskiren in addition to losartan 100 mg and optimal antihypertensive therapy. The primary outcome was a reduction in the urinary albumin-creatinine ratio. Aliskiren 300 mg daily reduced the mean urinary albumin-creatinine ratio by 20% (p < 0.001) compared with placebo. The number of adverse events was similar between groups. Aliskiren is renoprotective independently of its blood pressure lowering effect.
