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

backgroundHigh blood pressure (BP) is considered as the most important risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The main aim of this study was to investigate the effect of polypill on BP by reviewing clinical trial studies. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this systematic review study, online databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases with no limited time were systematically searched until July 10, 2020. Clinical trial studies published in English that examined the effect of polypill on BP were included. BP was the main outcome investigated.

resultsEleven original articles with a population of 17,042 people were reviewed. The polypill drugs studied in this study had different compounds. Compared to conventional care, treatment with polypill compounds has a positive and significant effect on lowering BP (

conclusionOur finding confirmed that polypills could reduce BP in patients. It seems that changing routine care and replacing it with a polypill strategy could facilitate the achievement of BP control goals.
