What is the role of angiotensin receptor blockers in treatment of hyperuricemia coexisting with arterial hypertension?
Review in Reumatologia, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Angiotensin receptor blockers or sartans are used to treat arterial hypertension. Hyperuricemia and arterial hypertension often coexist in patients with metabolic syndrome. Also hyperuricemia is correlated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death. There are data suggesting that lowering serum urate may assist in control of arterial hypertension and use of certain drugs for arterial hypertension may reduce the serum uric acid level. The Polish Society of Arterial Hypertension recommends losartan for treatment of arterial hypertension in patients with coexisting hyperuricemia. The aim of the present review was to find evidence supporting the concept of use and explain the role of sartans in treatment of hyperuricemia. Thirty-five original and review articles about hyperuricemia and arterial hypertension focusing on the use of sartans in both these medical conditions were analyzed. In conclusion, sartans should be recommended for treatment of hyperuricemia coexisting with arterial hypertension in patients without bilateral renal artery stenosis and with exclusion of pregnant women.
