Effect of Different Classes of Antihypertensive Drugs on Arterial Stiffness.
Review in Current hypertension reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
purpose of reviewTo describe the physiological aspects of blood pressure and arterial stiffness, as well as explain how these processes are related. To review the available evidence on the effect of treatment with different classes of antihypertensive drugs on improving arterial stiffness. RECENT
findingsSpecific classes of antihypertensive drugs may have effects directly on improving arterial stiffness independent of lowering blood pressure. The maintenance of normal blood pressure levels is essential for the homeostasis of the whole organism; the increase in blood pressure is directly related to the increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Hypertension is characterized by structural and functional changes in blood vessels and is associated with a more accelerated progression of arterial stiffness. Randomized clinical trials have shown that some specific classes of antihypertensive drugs can improve arterial stiffness independently of their effect on lowering brachial blood pressure. These studies show that calcium channel blockers (CCBs), angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors have been shown to have a better effect on arterial stiffness compared to diuretics and beta-blockers in individuals with arterial hypertension and other cardiovascular risk factors. More real-world studies are needed to assess whether this effect on arterial stiffness can improve the prognosis of patients with hypertension.
