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

backgroundHypertension is a great global health challenge and it mostly requires drug combination therapy with the various advantages. Metoprolol (MP) and paeoniflorin are both commonly used for the treatment of hypertension. However, whether they exert synergistic effects on antihypertension or not remains unclear, especially on vascular endothelial function.

objectiveThe purpose of the study is to investigate the advantages of the combined antihypertensive effects of paeoniflorin enriched extract from Radix MATERIALS AND

methodsSHR divided into six groups (

resultsThe results showed that MP + RE significantly reduced BP, increased microcirculation, improved vascular function and pathological changes, and upregulated eNOS expression. MP was also found to increase the blood concentration of paeoniflorin in SD.

conclusionThe combination of RE and MP could be used for the treatment of hypertension and could improve microcirculation, upregulate eNOS expression, and mitigate endothelial dysfunction in SHR. SUMMARY: Paeoniflorin enriched extract from Radix
