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

Multiple drug intolerance to antihypertensive medications (MDI-HTN) is an overlooked cause of nonadherence. In this study, 55 patients with MDI-HTN were managed with a novel treatment algorithm utilizing sequentially initiated monotherapies or combinations of maximally tolerated doses of fractional tablet doses, liquid formulations, transdermal preparations, and off-label tablet medications. A total of 10% of referred patients had MDI-HTN, resulting in insufficient pharmacotherapy and baseline office blood pressure (OBP) of 178±24/94±15 mm Hg. At baseline, patients were intolerant to 7.6±3.6 antihypertensives; they were receiving 1.4±1.1 medications. After 6 months on the novel MDI-HTN treatment algorithm, both OBP and home blood pressure (HBP) were significantly reduced, with patients receiving 2.0±1.2 medications. At 12 months, OBP was reduced from baseline by 17±5/9±3 mm Hg (P<.01, P<.05) and HBP was reduced by 11±5/12±3 mm Hg (P<.01 for both) while patients were receiving 1.9±1.1 medications. Application of a stratified medicine approach allowed patients to tolerate increased numbers of medications and achieved significant long-term lowering of blood pressure.
