Implications of the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Hypertension Guideline in a Modern Primary Prevention Multi-Ethnic Prospective Cohort (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis).

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
The American College of Physicians and the American Academy of Family Physician did not endorse the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) hypertension guidelines citing multiple concerns. We assessed the increase in antihypertensive medication eligibility introduced by the 2017 hypertension guideline and the risk profile of those newly eligible for blood pressure medication using participants from the MultiEthnic Study of Atherosclerosis. The antihypertensive medication eligibility criteria of the Joint National Commission (JNC) VII, JNC VIII, and the 2017 ACC/AHA hypertension guidelines were applied to the cohort and the risk profile of those newly eligible was compared with those ineligible for antihypertensive medication under the 2017 ACC/AHA guidelines using Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard analysis. The new guideline increased antihypertensive medication eligibility by 46.8% and 96.7% compared with the JNC VII and JNC VIII guideline respectively. The newly eligible group did not have an increased risk of incident atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heart failure, or death compared with those ineligible (HR [95%CI]: 1.26 [0.96 to 1.65], p = 0.10; 0.75 [0.45 to 1.26], p = 0.27; 1.06 [-0.84 to 1.36], p = 0.62, respectively) after adjusting for age, gender, and race. The 2017 ACC/AHA hypertension guidelines extend antihypertensive medication to a substantial number of individuals, although the risk profile of the newly eligible group appears similar to those ineligible for antihypertensive medication after adjusting for non-modifiable risk factors.
