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

Hypertension is a global health burden. However, clinical reference for the adequate management of blood pressure (BP) to prevent renal injury has yet to be established. Thus, this study aimed to investigate whether optimal control and maintenance of BP at < 140/90, < 130/80, or < 120/70 mmHg could prevent hypertensive nephropathy in nondiabetic hypertensive patients. A single-center observational study of 351 nondiabetic hypertensive patients was conducted in Taiwan. The average age of the participants was 64.0 years, and approximately 57.8% of the participants were men. Kidney function was assessed using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The baseline eGFR was 83.8 ± 19.8 mL/min/1.73 m
