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

The present paper summarizes and highlights key messages of the 2007 Canadian Hypertension Education Program recommendations for the management and diagnosis of hypertension. This is the eighth annual update. Important new messages in the 2007 Canadian Hypertension Education Program recommendations emphasize the need for assessing adults with high normal blood pressure on an annual basis and reducing sodium in the diet of Canadians to less than 100 mmol/day. These new recommendations still need to be incorporated into the older but still important considerations for the diagnosis, management and treatment of patients with hypertension, namely, assessing blood pressure in all adults at all appropriate visits, expediting the diagnosis of hypertension, assessing and managing global cardiovascular risk, emphasizing that lifestyle modifications are the cornerstone of antihypertensive therapy, treating to target to achieve optimum cardiovascular risk reduction, using combinations of antihypertensive medications and lifestyle to achieve recommended targets and focusing on adherence to therapy. Minor changes in pharmacological therapies and some new recommendations on routine laboratory tests are discussed.
