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

Arterial aging can be attributed to two different pathophysiological changes--increase in arterial stiffness and disturbed wave reflections. The capacity of the aorta to absorb the force exerted by the left ventricular ejection and dampen pulsatile flow becomes diminished with advancing age, owing to the progressive hardening of the arterial wall. These changes contribute to increase blood pressure, mainly systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure, which can trigger cardiovascular events. Understanding the pulsatile arterial hemodynamics that elevate cardiovascular risk has led to the use of pharmacological therapies, which prevent arterial stiffness and reduce wave reflections, and improve cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Antifibrotic agents, such as those that block the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway, are often given in association with diuretics, calcium-channel blockers, or both, but not with standard beta-blockers. Consistent reductions in cardiovascular outcomes obtained using these agents can be predicted through noninvasive measurements of central systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure.
