Home-based interventions for black patients with uncontrolled hypertension: a cluster randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Journal of comparative effectiveness research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00139490 (Home-Based Blood Pressure Interventions for African Americans), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
aimAssess the comparative effectiveness of two blood pressure (BP) control interventions for black patients with uncontrolled hypertension. PATIENTS &
methodsA total of 845 patients were enrolled in a three-arm cluster randomized trial. On admission of an eligible patient, field nurses were randomized to usual care, a basic or augmented intervention.
resultsAcross study arms there were no significant 12 months differences in BP control rates (primary outcome) (25% usual care, 26% basic intervention, 22% augmented intervention); systolic BP (143.8 millimeters of mercury [mmHg], 146.9 mmHG, 143.9 mmHG, respectively); medication intensification (47, 43, 54%, respectively); or self-management score (18.7, 18.7, 17.9, respectively). Adjusted systolic BP dropped more than 10 mmHg from baseline to 12 months (155.5-145.4 mmHg) among all study participants.
conclusionNeither the augmented nor basic intervention was more effective than usual care in improving BP control, systolic BP, medication intensification or patient self-management. Usual home care yielded substantial improvements, creating a high comparative effectiveness threshold. CLINICAL
