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 prevalence of hypertension and diabetes are both rising in the USA and around the globe. The treatment of hypertension in the ambulatory setting begins with proper blood pressure measurement, and often the involvement of home blood pressure monitoring. If the diagnosis of hypertension is confirmed, then education on lifestyle modifications is the foundation to reaching blood pressure goals. If it is unclear, then ambulatory blood pressure monitoring should be performed to properly evaluate daily trends in blood pressure. The National Institute for Health and Clinical excellence (NICE) recommends 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure evaluation in all newly diagnosed patients with hypertension. The much-anticipated JNC 2013, while not likely to endorse this approach, will likely recommend an office goal systolic blood pressure of less than 140 mmHg in patients with diabetes as do the most recent American Diabetes Association clinical practice guidelines. All new guidelines are derived from a critical evidence based evaluation of the available data.
