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

To determine the prevalence of multidrug antihypertensive therapy (MDAT), records were evaluated for patients with both type 2 diabetes and hypertension during a 5-year period at Joslin Diabetes Center. Hypertension control was defined as requiring multiple drugs if three or more antihypertensive drugs were used, one of which must be a diuretic (unless patient is receiving dialysis), or use of four or more antihypertensive drugs, one of which a diuretic (unless patient is receiving dialysis) was established. The objective was to determine the prevalence of multidrug requirement for hypertensive therapy in relationship to four levels of renal function estimated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula for glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Among 10,151 patients, mean estimated GFR was 80 mL/min. Using standard (ASN) classification for renal function, we noted the following breakdown of MDAT use: Estimated GFR Drugs, Mean No. ≥3 Drugs, No. (%) ≥4 Drugs, No. (%) <30 3.1 379 (67) 214 (38) 30-60 2.7 1233 (55) 538 (24) 60-90 2.0 1279 (33) 458 (12) >90 1.5 600 (17) 185 (5) Prevalence of multidrug antihypertensive therapy is markedly increased in the presence of reduced renal function.
