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

Uncontrolled arterial hypertension is a major global health issue. Catheter-based renal denervation has shown to lower blood pressure in sham-controlled trials and represents a device-based, complementary treatment option for hypertension. In this situation assessment, the authors, who are practicing experts in hypertension, nephrology, general practice and cardiology in the Republic of Ireland, discuss the current evidence base for the BP-lowering efficacy and safety of catheter-based renal denervation with different modalities. Although important questions remain regarding the identification of responders, and long-term efficacy and safety of the intervention, renal denervation has the potential to provide much-needed help to address hypertension and its adverse consequences. The therapeutic approach needs to be multidisciplinary and personalised to take into account the perspective of patients and healthcare professionals in a shared decision-making process.
