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

backgroundHypertension is a common co-morbidity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and well tolerated, effective therapies are needed to achieve guideline-recommended blood pressure (BP) goals in these patients.

objectiveThe aim of this study was to present the results of a prespecified analysis of key secondary endpoints from a 12-week, open-label, single-arm study evaluating the efficacy and safety of olmesartan medoxomil plus hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) in patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes. STUDY DESIGN AND

methodsAfter a placebo run-in period, 192 patients received olmesartan medoxomil 20 mg/day for 3 weeks. If BP remained ≥ 120/70 mmHg, patients were uptitrated at 3-week intervals to olmesartan medoxomil 40 mg/day, olmesartan medoxomil/HCTZ 40/12.5 mg/day, and olmesartan medoxomil/HCTZ 40/25 mg/day.

main outcome measureEndpoints evaluated in this analysis were the change from baseline in mean seated cuff BP (SeBP), proportions of patients achieving SeBP goals, and distribution of SeBP reductions.

resultsMean SeBP was 158.1/90.0 mmHg at baseline. The mean ± standard error of BP reductions at 12 weeks for systolic and diastolic BP were 21.3 ± 1.1 mmHg and 9.8 ± 0.6 mmHg, respectively (p < 0.0001 for each). At the end of the study, the proportion of patients with diabetes achieving the recommended SeBP goal of <130/80 mmHg was 41.1%.

conclusionsAn olmesartan medoxomil ± HCTZ treatment regimen significantly reduced BP from baseline in patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00403481.
