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

backgroundHypertension can result in great cardiovascular risk, while medication adherence and blood pressure control of patients were suboptimal. Therefore, we conducted a 12-month clustered randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of transtheoretical model (TTM)-based health intervention mode on blood pressure of Chinese newly-diagnosed hypertensive patients.

methodsThis trial was conducted in six primary healthcare centers, Shunyi District, Beijing, China from September 2016 to September 2017. A total of 400 patients were included and randomized, 194 patients in the control group and 206 patients in the intervention group. Patients in the intervention group received TTM-based health intervention and those in the control group received usual care. Multilevel modeling was used to adjust for clustering effect and repeated measurements.

resultsSystolic blood pressure of patient was reduced by 4.534 mm Hg at 3-month follow-up [95% CI (-3.054, -1.403),

conclusionTranstheoretical model-based health intervention might be a promising strategy to improve medication adherence of newly-diagnosed hypertensive patients in community.
