Establishing targets for hypertension control in patients with comorbidities.
Review in Current hypertension reports, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Most current guidelines recommend tighter blood pressure (BP) control in hypertensive patients with comorbidities. These recommendations are based on epidemiologic data indicating that cardiovascular risk increases at lower BP levels in hypertensive patients with comorbidities than in those without comorbidities. Hypertension guidelines usually reflect outcomes from previous studies, but current recommendations for patients with comorbidities have preceded the evidence. We review recent studies investigating whether these new targets can be achieved, whether they are well tolerated, and whether they positively affect the outcomes. The results of the few current studies about outcomes in lower BP target groups are either negative or somewhat--but not decidedly--positive. There is a need for new trials designed to evaluate the validity of current recommendations for tighter BP control in hypertensive patients with comorbidities. Additionally, existing data from published trials could be reanalyzed to provide further clarification.
