Ramipril + amlodipine and ramipril + hydrochlorothiazide fixed-dose combinations in relation to patient adherence.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective To compare 1-year treatment adherence of ramipril + amlodipine and ramipril +hydroclorothiazide fixed-dose combination therapies in patients with hypertension. Methods Data were extracted from the database of the National Health Insurance Fund of Hungary. Treatment adherence was modelled using survival analysis. Results At 2 months after initiation of treatment, 42% of patients using ramipril +hydrochlorothiazide ( n = 28,800) had discontinued treatment, compared with 0% of patients using ramipril + amlodipine ( n = 10,295). At 1 year, treatment adherence was 29% in the ramipril + hydrochlorothiazide group and 54% in the ramipril + amlodipine group. The hazard ratio for discontinuing ramipril + hydrochlorothiazide vs ramipril + amlodipine was 2.318 (95% confidence intervals 2.246, 2.392). Conclusion Ramipril + amlodipine had significantly higher 1-year treatment adherence than ramipril + hydrochlorothiazide in patients with hypertension.
