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

Although blood pressure control is considered the main mechanism for preventing the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptors blockers have an additional organ-protective role. The effects of calcium channel blockers (CCBs) in renal disease are not so clearly defined. CCBs have pleiotropic effects that might contribute to protection of the kidney, such as attenuating the mesangial entrapment of macromolecules, countervailing the mitogenic effect of platelet-derived growth factors and platelet-activating factors and suppressing mesangial cell proliferation. Some evidence has accumulated in recent years demonstrating that the new dihydropyridinic CCBs (such as lercanidipine or efonidipine) may affect both postglomerular and preglomerular vessels, resulting in a decreased filtration fraction and nephroprotective effect. Increasing clinical and experimental evidence supports this view and the use of CCBs in CKD hypertensive patients.
