Review in Journal of human hypertension, 2023. 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.

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

Cancer is considered one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. At the same time, hypertension is recognized as one of the most common comorbidities in cancer patients. Antineoplastic therapies, mainly tyrosine kinase and vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors, have been associated with new-onset hypertension by activation of different pathophysiological pathways. However, the role of preexisting hypertension in cancer patients under treatment has not been thoroughly studied. According to this review, preexisting hypertension is an independent risk factor for increased blood pressure during anticancer therapy. Therefore, physicians should recognize hypertension and its phenotypes (i.e., masked hypertension) as an important modifiable risk factor that should be properly managed prior to the initiation of cancer therapy to avoid premature chemotherapy cessation. The development of onco-hypertension will help establish specific guidelines for managing hypertension in cancer patients.
