Is antihypertensive treatment based on home blood pressure recommended rather than that based on office blood pressure in adults with essential hypertension? (meta-analysis).

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
Self-measured blood pressure (BP) at home, that is, home BP, is a stronger prognosticator than office BP. However, some physicians seem to think that office BP measurement is sufficient to manage hypertension. We aimed to assess whether interventions based on using home BP affect clinical outcomes including BP levels when compared with usual care based on office BP. Using the PubMed and the Cochrane Library databases (until July 2017), we searched randomized controlled trials comparing home BP-based treatment to usual care in adults with essential hypertension aged ≥18 years in an area with an established medical system. Outcomes were (1) cardiovascular events and related deaths and (2) changes in ambulatory BP levels. For outcomes of cardiovascular events and related deaths, there were no appropriate studies for the present meta-analysis. For outcomes of BP change, the analysis based on all 12 studies found by our search showed that home BP-based treatment was significantly associated with a 1.18 mmHg larger reduction in the average ambulatory systolic BP than the control group (P = 0.04). However, a high heterogeneity was observed (I
