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

Treatment-resistant hypertension (TRH) is a well-described condition in adult patients that is associated with poor clinical outcomes. While case reports of hypertension resistant to therapy in children have been published, it is unclear if TRH truly exists in childhood. This educational review will briefly summarize recent evidence and recommendations for TRH in adults, as well as will review the literature regarding medically resistant hypertension in children and adolescents. Finally, we propose a clinical approach for evaluation hypertensive children and adolescents with apparent treatment resistance.
