Augmented antihypertensive effect of a fixed combination formula of candesartan and hydrochlorothiazide combined with furosemide in a patient on peritoneal dialysis.

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
A 38-year-old female patient on peritoneal dialysis (PD) due to type 1 diabetic nephropathy with a well-preserved residual renal function did not respond well to the conventional antihypertensive therapy consisting of candesartan, furosemide, and bunazosin. Switching candesartan for a fixed combination formula of candesartan plus hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) while the rest of the other two agents remained unchanged led to the remarkable reduction in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) without significant changes in the cardiothoracic ratio (CTR), body weight (BW), and residual renal function. This case suggests that when used in combination, diuretics acting on different functional segment of the nephron hold greater potential for enhanced antihypertensive effect, especially in patients on PD whose residual renal function is well preserved. A small dose of HCTZ with an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) may partially explain the therapeutic benefit of this combination therapy in terms of a reliable hypotensive effect, a better adherence, and fewer side effects.
