Allisartan Isoproxil Improves Endothelial Function and Vascular Damage in Patients with Essential Hypertension: A Single-Center, Open-Label, Randomized Controlled Trial.
Trial report in Advances in therapy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionAllisartan isoproxil is a novel angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist that has been confirmed to lower blood pressure and protect target organs effectively. However, its role in improving endothelial function and vascular damage has not been investigated yet.
methodsPatients with initially diagnosed mild essential hypertension (BP ranging from 140/90 to 159/99 mmHg) with age from 25-75 years were randomly assigned 1:1 to either the allisartan group (allisartan 240 mg/day and lifestyle modification) or the lifestyle modification group and were followed up for 30 days. Flow-mediated dilation (FMD), brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and endothelial microparticles (EMPs) were measured for evaluation of endothelial function and vascular damage. In addition, we enrolled 36 normotensive individuals as healthy control.
resultsSeventy-two mildly hypertensive patients were enrolled in this study. After 30 days of treatment, a significant increase in FMD was observed in the allisartan group (0.9 ± 0.7%, p < 0.001) and remained unchanged in the lifestyle modification group, but the difference between the two groups did not reach statistical significance (p = ns). EMPs, baPWV, SBP and DBP decreased by 251.0 ± 255.9 counts/μl (p < 0.001), 102.8 ± 84.2 cm/s (p < 0.001), 13.20 ± 3.9 mmHg (p < 0.001) and 9.35 ± 2.5 mmHg (p < 0.001), respectively, in the allisartan group, while by 21.3 ± 84.3 counts/μl (p = ns), 0.4 ± 22.0 cm/s (p = ns), 3.2 ± 6.0 mmHg (p < 0.01) and 1.0 ± 2.5 mmHg (p = ns), respectively, in the lifestyle modification group. All of the indexes above achieved statistical significance between the allisartan and lifestyle modification groups (p < 0.05). Besides, after 30 days of allisartan administration baPWV and EMPs were comparable to those measured in the healthy control group, while the difference in SBP, DBP and FMD remained significant between the allisartan and healthy control groups (p < 0.05).
conclusionThe present study demonstrates for the first time that allisartan isoproxil exerts a favorable effect on improving endothelial function and vascular damage in patients with mild EH, making it a promising drug for management of EH. CLINICAL
