Current antihypertensive treatment and treatment-resistant hypertension in Japanese patients with chronic kidney disease.
Article in Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundHypertension is an important prognostic predictor in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and the recommended target blood pressure has been continuously revised. This study aimed to reveal the current antihypertensive practices in Japanese patients with CKD.
methodsIn the Fukuoka Kidney disease Registry, we extracted 3664 non-dialysis-dependent patients with CKD. Apparent treatment-resistant hypertension (aTRH) was defined as a failure of blood-pressure control treated with three antihypertensive medication classes or a treatment with ≥ 4 classes regardless of blood pressure. The blood-pressure control complied with the target blood pressure recommended by the KDIGO 2012 guideline.
resultsThe median age of the patients was 67 years, body mass index (BMI) was 23 kg/m
conclusionsRenal dysfunction and obesity are important risk factors of aTRH. Even under nephrologist care, most patients were treated with insufficient antihypertensive medications. It is important to prescribe sufficient classes of antihypertensive medications, including diuretics, and to improve patients' lifestyle habits.
