Comparative effects of valsartan plus cilnidipine or hydrochlorothiazide on nocturnal home blood pressure.
Trial report in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We tested our hypothesis that, in hypertensive patients with higher nocturnal home systolic blood pressure (HSBP) at baseline, a valsartan/cilnidipine (80/10 mg) combination would reduce nocturnal HSBP more markedly than a valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide (80/12.5 mg) combination. Patients measured their nocturnal HSBP over three nights prior to study randomization and at the end of treatment. Sixty-three and 66 patients comprised the valsartan/cilnidipine and valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide groups; their respective baseline nocturnal HSBP values were 124.3 ± 15.6 and 125.8 ± 15.2 mm Hg (P = .597). Nocturnal HSBPs were significantly reduced from baseline in both groups. Although the valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide group exhibited a significantly greater reduction in nocturnal HSBP compared to the valsartan/cilnidipine group (-5.0 vs. -10.0 mm Hg, P = .035), interaction between the treatment groups and the baseline nocturnal HSBP levels for the changes in nocturnal HSBP after the treatment periods was significant (P = .047). The BP-lowering effect of valsartan/cilnidipine was more dependent on baseline nocturnal HSBP than that of valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide.
