Review in The Canadian journal of cardiology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

While there have been substantive efforts to improve treatment and control of hypertension in Canada, many individuals with hypertension remain unaware of their condition and many health care professionals are unaware of key hypertension management recommendations. The present article reviews the new Canadian strategic direction for increased knowledge translation and dissemination of information to patients and health care professionals by providing new, innovative and easily accessible resources for hypertension education in Canada. A multitude of resources that address the diverse learning needs of health care professionals and the general public are highlighted.
