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

backgroundPrevious clinical studies have reported that urapidil can effectively treat patients with senile hypertension (SH) and acute heart failure (AHF). However, no studies have systematically assessed the efficacy and safety of urapidil for patients with SH and AHF. Thus, this study will investigate the efficacy and safety of urapidil for SH and AHF.

methodsIn this study, we will search the following electronic databases from inception to the June 30, 2019: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Google scholar, Springer, WANGFANG, and China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database. We will search all these electronic databases without language limitations. We will also search grey records to avoid missing potential literature. In this study, only randomized controlled trials on assessing efficacy and safety of urapidil for SH and AHF will be considered. We will use RevMan 5.3 software and STATA 15.0 software to carry out statistical analysis.

resultsThis study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of urapidil for SH and AHF by assessing all-cause mortality, change in body weight, urine output, change in serum sodium; and incidence of all adverse events.

conclusionThis study will provide latest evidence of the efficacy and safety of urapidil for patients with SH and AHF. DISSEMINATION AND ETHICS: This study will only analyze published data; therefore, no ethical approval is needed. The findings of this study will be published at peer-reviewed journals. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42019139344.
