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

purpose of reviewTo review the most recent data on the development of endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs) for the treatment of hypertension and the management of diabetic nephropathy RECENT

findingsRecent reviews and meta-analyses of experimental and clinical data obtained with ERAs confirmed that endothelin receptor blockade is associated with significant decreases in blood pressure in essential hypertension but also in resistant hypertension. In addition, in patients with diabetic nephropathy, ERAs induce significant 30-40% decreases in albuminuria when administered on top of blockers of the renin-angiotensin system. Yet, the benefits of ERAs have often been limited by their tolerability profile, essentially fluid retention and the development of edema and liver toxicity. Hence, several programs have been interrupted. Today, only one ERA, aprocitentan, is still under development for the treatment of resistant hypertension. Regarding the place of ERAs in the management of diabetic nephropathy, the results of the SONAR trial with atrasentan are eagerly awaited but the recent interruption of this trial because of insufficient events is worrisome, as one might not obtain all the expected information for this major trial. Blockade of endothelin receptor have a high potential in the treatment of hypertension and the prevention of the progression of renal diseases such as diabetic nephropathy. Today, the number of clinical programs investigating the potential benefits of ERAs is limited and more data must be obtained to define the real place of ERAs in these indications.
