Antihypertensive Agents in the Dialysis Patient.
Review in Current hypertension reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purpose of reviewHypertension and antihypertensive drug utilization are remarkably prevalent in ESRD patients. Management of blood pressure elevation in this population is complicated by many factors, including a multidimensional etiology, challenges in obtaining accurate and appropriately timed blood pressure measurements, highly specific drug dosing requirements, and a paucity of outcomes-based evidence to guide management decisions. The purpose of this review is to summarize and apply knowledge from existing clinical trials to enhance safe and effective use of antihypertensive agents in dialysis patients. RECENT
findingsTwo meta-analyses have established the benefit of antihypertensive therapy in ESRD. Data supporting the use of one antihypertensive class over another is less robust; however, beta-blockers have more clearly demonstrated improved cardiovascular outcomes in prospective randomized trials. Interdialytic home blood pressure monitoring has been demonstrated to be better associated with cardiovascular outcomes than clinic pre- or post-dialysis readings and should ideally be considered as a routine part of blood pressure management in this population. As data from small trials provides limited guidance for the management of hypertension in ESRD, more research is needed to guide medication selection and utilization. Specifically, large prospective randomized trails comparing cardiovascular outcomes of various medication classes and differing blood pressure targets are needed.
