Fixed-dose Combination of Metoprolol, Telmisartan, and Chlorthalidone for Essential Hypertension in Adults with Stable Coronary Artery Disease: Phase III Study.

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
introductionThe aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combination (FDC) of metoprolol, telmisartan, and chlorthalidone in patients with essential hypertension and stable coronary artery disease (CAD) who showed inadequate response to dual therapy.
methodsIn this phase III, open-label, multicenter study, 254 adults with stable CAD having uncontrolled hypertension despite being treated with FDC of metoprolol (25/50 mg) and telmisartan (40 mg) were included. Patients received either of the following FDC for 24 weeks: metoprolol (25 mg), telmisartan (40 mg), and chlorthalidone (12.5 mg) (FDC1; n = 139) or metoprolol (50 mg), telmisartan (40 mg), and chlorthalidone (12.5 mg) (FDC2; n = 115) tablets once daily. The FDCs were developed using the novel Wrap Matrix™ platform technology. Primary endpoint assessed the mean change in seated diastolic blood pressure (SeDBP) and seated systolic blood pressure (SeSBP) from baseline to 24 weeks. Secondary efficacy endpoints included proportion of patients achieving < 90 mmHg SeDBP (SeDBP responder) and < 140 mmHg SeSBP (SeSBP responder) at weeks 12, 16, 20, and 24. Safety was assessed throughout the study.
resultsA total of 243 (95.70%) patients completed study. The mean change in BP from baseline (FDC1, 155/96 mmHg; FDC2, 165/98 mmHg) to week 24 (FDC1, 128/82 mmHg; FDC2, 131/83 mmHg) was statistically significant (both groups p < 0.0001). Within FDC1 and FDC2, the mean change from baseline to week 24 in SeDBP (82.60 mmHg and 83.09 mmHg) and SeSBP (128.07 mmHg and 131.29 mmHg) was statistically significant (both groups p < 0.0001). At week 24, in FDC1, 80.15% and 84.73% were SeDBP and SeSBP responders, respectively; in FDC2, 79.46% and 74.11% were SeDBP and SeSBP responders, respectively. No serious adverse events or deaths were reported.
conclusionTriple FDCs of metoprolol, telmisartan, and chlorthalidone were considered effective and well tolerated in patients with hypertension who respond inadequately to dual therapy. CLINICAL
