Thiazide Discontinuation in Chronic Kidney Disease Hypertension Management: A Retrospective Chart Review.
Article in The Permanente journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThiazides are utilized in general hypertension management, however, their role in chronic kidney disease (CKD) hypertension management remains unclear. Although data support thiazide efficacy in advanced CKD, the adverse effect profile (including estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] decline and electrolyte abnormalities) may lead to thiazide discontinuation. The authors assessed the thiazide discontinuation rate in Kaiser Permanente Southern California members with moderate-to-severe CKD and hypertension.
methodsThis study was a multicenter retrospective analysis evaluating Kaiser Permanente Southern California members with hypertension and CKD 3B or 4 who filled a thiazide prescription in 2021, with follow-up through 2022. The outcomes were thiazide discontinuation rate, reason for thiazide discontinuation, time to thiazide discontinuation, and discontinuing practitioner specialty. Mean changes in blood pressure and eGFR from baseline were also evaluated.
resultsOf the 401 patients followed for 1 year after thiazide initiation, 65 patients discontinued a thiazide (discontinuation rate: 16.2%, mean time to discontinuation: 7.5 months). Of the 201 patients followed for 2 years after thiazide initiation, 57 patients discontinued a thiazide (discontinuation rate: 28.4%, mean time to discontinuation: 15.5 months). The most commonly documented thiazide discontinuation reason was increased serum creatinine (30% of total reasons at 1 year and 39% of total reasons at 2 years).
conclusionMost patients with hypertension and CKD 3B or 4 continued on a thiazide with favorable blood pressure lowering effects and modest eGFR decline. Thiazides may be considered viable antihypertensive options with close renal function monitoring for patients with moderate-to-severe CKD.
