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

introductionIn women, an increase in blood pressure is observed after the menopause. However, the confounding effect of aging and comorbidities should be taken into account. Current guidelines don't recommend any specific treatment of post-menopausal hypertension. This study aimed to assess the influence of gender on the outcome of hypertension treatment in patients above 40 years old. MATERIAL AND

methodsData for this retrospective, single-center study were collected from the disease cards of hypertensive pharmacologically treated patients hospitalized on the cardiological ward. 268 patients, aged over 40, were divided into two groups: women and men. Additional data regarding compliance and efficacy of treatment after hospitalization were obtained in phone interview. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics25 package.

resultsWe analyzed the data in term of comorbidities and medical history of cardiological interventions. The significant differences between studied groups were noted only in the frequency of hyperlipidemia and coronary artery bypass graft, both were more often in men. Significantly more men have been using combined products (24 men - 32.4%) vs. 40 women (20.6%) (

conclusionsIn the studied group of patients, gender did not affect the outcome of hypertension treatment.
