Clinical treatment outcomes of hypertensive emergency patients: Results from the hypertension registry program in Northeastern Thailand.
Article 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 9 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
Hypertensive emergency care is a challenge in clinical practices due to vital organ complications that may lead to unfavorable outcomes if left untreated. The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence, clinical characters, treatment, and outcomes of hypertensive emergency patients. A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a university hospital in Northeast Thailand from January 2016 to December 2019. Hypertensive crises patients were consecutively registered to the Hypertension Registry Program. There were 263 674 patients who were admitted to the ER, 60,755 of whom had BP ≥ 140/90 mm Hg and 1,342 of whom were diagnosed with a hypertensive emergency (127 per 100 000 patient-year). The mean age was 66 years old, and 52.1% of the registered patients were men. The most common target organ damage was caused by stroke (49.8%), followed by acute heart failure (19.3%), and then by acute coronary syndrome (6.5%). Intravenous antihypertensive medication was given in 42.1% of the patients, and 80% were admitted to the hospital. The in-hospital mortality rate was 1.6%. In conclusion, hypertensive emergencies were not uncommon among the emergency patients. Strokes caused the most common target organ damage. Although there was a high hospital admission rate, the mortality rate was low.
