Thiazide Use and Decreased Risk of Heart Failure in Nondiabetic Patients Receiving Intensive Blood Pressure Treatment.
Article in Hypertension (Dallas, Tex. : 1979), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The SPRINT (Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial) study reported that intensive blood pressure (BP) treatment with a systolic BP target of <120 mm Hg decreased the risks of cardiovascular events. However, it remains unknown whether specific medications can further improve cardiovascular outcome in patients receiving intensive BP treatment. This study examined whether thiazide use improves cardiovascular outcome in patients receiving intensive BP treatment. We used data of nondiabetic patients receiving intensive BP treatment in the SPRINT study. The primary outcome was a composite end point of myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, stroke, heart failure, or cardiovascular death. We analyzed hazard ratios for outcomes with 95% CIs in patients taking thiazides compared with those not taking thiazides using Cox proportional hazard models. This study included 2847 patients and the mean follow-up period was 3.3 years. The risk of primary outcome events was significantly lower in patients taking thiazides than in those not taking thiazides in both entire and propensity score-matched cohorts. Particularly, heart failure risk was significantly lower in those taking thiazides. These associations were also observed in various subgroups. In addition, thiazide use was associated with decreased risk of all-cause mortality. Hypokalemia occurred more frequently in patients taking thiazides than in those not taking thiazides. Thiazide use decreased risk of cardiovascular events, particularly heart failure, in nondiabetic high-risk patients receiving intensive BP treatment.
