Observational study and participant-level meta-analysis on antihypertensive drug treatment-related cardiovascular risk.
Synthesis in Hypertension research : official journal of the Japanese Society of Hypertension, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Although antihypertensive therapy reduces cardiovascular risk, individuals who are treated with antihypertensive medication generally have a worse prognosis for cardiovascular disease than untreated people. We recently evaluated the impact of conventional blood pressure level based on two Japanese individual participant databases and found that conventional blood pressure at baseline was not or was weakly associated with cardiovascular events among patients under antihypertensive drug medication. In the general population in Ohasama and the Hypertension Objective Treatment Based on Measurement by Electrical Devices of Blood Pressures study, self-measured home blood pressure significantly predicted cardiovascular outcomes in patients under antihypertensive treatment. Hypertension is a chronic disease, and blood pressure must be evaluated with repeated measurements over a long period of time. Therefore, although not proven by a randomized controlled trial, it is likely that the long-term management of hypertension by antihypertensive drug treatment should be based on self-measured home blood pressure. We should also pay careful attention to the residual cardiovascular risk in treated patients.
