Longitudinal community-based assessment of blood pressure control among Japanese hypertensive patients: Fukushima research of hypertension (FRESH).
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
In this observational cohort study, the authors assessed the achievement of treatment goals as defined in the Japanese Society of Hypertension's Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension (JSH 2004) among 2743 Japanese hypertensive patients who were followed for 1 year (follow-up rate of 82.6%). Median age was 72 years, and 45% were men. Achievement of treatment goals across all 4 seasons was very low, at 4.1% among patients with diabetes mellitus or renal disease, 3.9% among nonelderly patients (<65 years of age) without these diseases, and 30.8% among elderly patients (>or=65 years of age) without these diseases. These findings highlight the importance of maintaining appropriate blood pressure control. In addition, an analysis of factors associated with achievement rates identified the importance of weight control, lifestyle modification, and family history, and indicated a need for better blood pressure management before complications arise.
