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

Arterial hypertension represents one of the most frequent chronic diseases that can lead to complications, such as stroke, dementia, heart attack, heart failure and renal failure. By 2025 the number of hypertensive patients will increase to approximately 1.6 billion people worldwide. The new guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) on the management of arterial hypertension replace the guidelines of the ESC/ESH from 2013. The 2018 guidelines of the ESC/ESH were adopted by the German Cardiac Society and the German Hypertension League. In these comments national characteristics are worked out and the essential new aspects of the guidelines are critically discussed. These include, for example, the definition of hypertension, the importance of out of office blood pressure measurements, revised blood pressure targets, the modified algorithm for drug treatment and the relevance of device-based hypertension treatments. Important aspects for the management of hypertensive emergencies are also presented.
