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

purpose of reviewTo discuss the current definition as well as recommendations for diagnosis and treatment of resistant hypertension (RH) based on the 2018 American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines and recent literature. RECENT

findingsRH is defined as uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) on ≥ 3 anti-hypertensives, one of which should be a diuretic, prescribed at maximally tolerated doses and appropriate dosing frequency. The diagnosis of RH requires exclusion of white coat effect and medication non-adherence, underscoring the importance of out-of-office BP measurements. Secondary causes of hypertension must be excluded in all patients with RH. A step-wise approach to treatment focusing on lifestyle modifications and medication optimization can be effective in > 50% of the patients with RH. Device-based interventional therapies for RH are currently investigational. Out-of-office BP measurements are central to the diagnosis of RH. Medication optimization is successful in most patients. Further studies are needed to define the role of device-based interventions.
