Trial report in Hypertension (Dallas, Tex. : 1979), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02502006 (A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Investigation of Inter-individual Variability in Pharmacologic Response to Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

backgroundLarge clinical trials compared distinct nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in terms of their risk of adverse cardiovascular events. However, whether pharmacologically equipotent doses were used, that is, whether a similar degree of COX (cyclooxygenase)-2 inhibition was achieved, was not considered. We compared drug target inhibition and blood pressure (BP) response to celecoxib and naproxen.

methodsSixteen healthy participants were treated with celecoxib (200 mg/d), naproxen (500 mg/d), or placebo for 7 days in a double-blind, crossover design. The degree of COX inhibition was assessed ex vivo using established whole blood assays and in vivo by quantifying urinary metabolites of thromboxane A

resultsBoth nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs inhibited COX-2 activity relative to placebo, but naproxen inhibited COX-2 activity to a greater degree (62.9±21.7%) than celecoxib (35.7±25.2%;

conclusionsFuture studies should consider pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, as well as patient-specific factors that may modulate the cardiovascular risk of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use. REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT02502006.
