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

backgroundHypertension (HTN) is one of the most prevalent risk factors for arteriosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD). Its side effects can be decreased through the use of some methods and interventions. The present study was conducted with the aim to evaluate the effects of a lifestyle management on blood pressure, heart rate, and body mass index (BMI) of patients with HTN who have undergone angioplasty.

methodsThis clinical trial was conducted on 2 groups in 3 stages in an educational hospital in Isfahan, Iran, in 2014. The study participants consisted of 60 patients with HTN who had undergone angioplasty. The participants were randomly allocated to the study and control groups. The intervention was implemented in 6 educational sessions during 3 weeks, and then, follow-up was conducted through phone calls in the study group. The collected data were analyzed using independent t-test, chi-square, Mann-Whitney U test, and ANOVA in SPSS software.

resultsRepeated measures ANOVA results indicated that the effect of time (P < 0.001) and group (P = 0.027) on systolic blood pressure (SBP) was significant. The effect of time (P = 0.015) and group (P = 0.040) on diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was also significant. In terms of BMI, both effects of time (P = 0.010) and group (P = 0.034) were significant. However, the effect of time (P = 0.899) and group (P = 0.900) on heart rate was not significant.

conclusionThe lifestyle management program implemented in the present study was effective on decreased DBP, SBP, and BMI in patients with HTN who had undergone angioplasty. Thus, nurses could implement this program as a part of their care provision program for patients.
