Revisiting resistant hypertension in kidney disease.

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 reviewAs compared to controlled or uncontrolled hypertension, resistant hypertension in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significantly increased healthcare burden due to greater target end-organ damage including cardiovascular disease and CKD progression. Patients with CKD have two to three times higher risk of developing resistant hypertension. True resistant hypertension needs to be distinguished from apparent treatment resistant hypertension (aTRH); however, it is usually not possible in epidemiological studies. Moreover, impact of contemporary guidelines changes in the target blood pressure (BP) goal to less than 130/80 mmHg remains to be determined. RECENT
findingsUp to half of patients with CKD meet aTRH criteria using 2017 ACC/AHA target BP less than 130/80 mmHg. Excess sodium retention in extracellular and tissue compartment remains the cornerstone cause of resistance to the treatment in CKD. Maximizing and optimizing the diuretic regimen in addition to dietary sodium restriction plays a critical role in these patients. Management requires a trustworthy provider-patient relationship facilitating identification and intervention for the barriers restricting the uptake of lifestyle modifications and medications. Recently, renal denervation has been approved and many other novel agents are on the horizon for treatment of true resistant hypertension associated with CKD. SUMMARY: This review discusses the latest in the pathophysiology, definition, identification and treatment strategies of resistant hypertension in individuals with CKD. Further investigations are required to identify the prevalence, future implication and treatment outcome data for true resistant hypertension associated with CKD.
