Factors Associated with Nonachievement of Target Blood Pressure in Patients on Antithrombotic Therapy: A Real-World Study.

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
introductionThe current guidelines for managing hypertension recommend strict blood pressure (BP) control to prevent bleeding complications in patients with hypertension on antithrombotic therapy. However, the target BP value of <130/80 mmHg is achieved in a small proportion of these patients. This study aimed to examine the factors associated with nonachievement of target BP value (≥130/80 mmHg) in patients on antithrombotic therapy.
methodsThis retrospective study was conducted at an outpatient clinic in 2018. Clinical parameters were obtained from the center's electronic medical database. Office BP was measured once in the sitting position. A target BP value of <130/80 mmHg was defined according to the Japanese Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension 2019.
resultsOf the 26,803 outpatients who had scheduled visits during this time, 2,427 received antithrombotic therapy. Patients with chronic kidney disease stage 5 or on hemodialysis and those with missing data on body mass index were excluded from the study; eventually, 2,201 outpatients met the inclusion criteria. BP values of <140/90 mmHg were observed in 59.2% of these outpatients; however, only 30.6% displayed the target BP value of <130/80 mmHg. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses indicated that male gender and obesity significantly correlated with nonachievement of the target BP (≥130/80 mmHg). However, heart failure and ischemic heart disease were negatively but significantly related to nonachievement of the target BP.
conclusionsThe target BP value was achieved in only a small proportion of the patients treated with antithrombotic drugs. In patients on antithrombotic therapy, obesity appeared to be a modifiable risk factor, whereas cardiovascular comorbidities, such as heart failure, were negative factors contributing to nonachievement of the target BP.
