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

Fixed combinations of antihypertensive drugs have the potentiality to improve blood pressure (BP) control. However, when pharmacokinetic parameters of the two drugs are different, both method and time of administration of the two drugs may modify the antihypertensive response. In an open-label, single-blind, randomized study we compared antihypertensive effect of four administration schemes of a combination therapy of olmesartan and amlodipine in the same group of hypertensive patients, using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). The olmesartan + amlodipine combination has demonstrated to provide a good control of BP, with systolic and diastolic BP constantly below 130 and 85 mmHg over the 24 h. The simultaneous or separate administration of the 2 drugs fully overlapped, suggesting that the fixed combination and the separate administration induce a similar and sustained BP control.
