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

Hypertension constitutes a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Globally, the management and control of hypertension remain suboptimal. At present, pharmacological intervention is a critical strategy for patients with hypertension to achieve blood pressure regulation. Nevertheless, inadequate adherence to prescribed medication significantly impedes effective blood pressure control. Renal denervation (RDN) has emerged as a minimally invasive intervention that has the potential to achieve long-term reduction in blood pressure. Many preclinical and clinical trials have validated the effects of RDN. While trials such as SYMPLICITY HTN-3 raised questions about the efficacy of RDN, the majority of subsequent clinical trials have demonstrated benefits in patients with resistant hypertension. Presently, traditional RDN therapy is characterized by invasiveness and technical complexity, so the utilization of noninvasive high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been incorporated into RDN procedures. This review is aimed at consolidating data on the efficacy and safety of various RDN modalities, examining the implementation of noninvasive HIFU in RDN practices, and suggesting potential avenues for future advancements and opportunities.
