Aprocitentan: A new development of resistant hypertension.
Review in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
As the blood pressure threshold for commencing antihypertensive treatment diminishes, the cohort suffering from resistant hypertension (RH) correspondingly expands. Notwithstanding the availability of known antihypertensive medications, there exists a conspicuous lacuna in therapeutic options specifically intended for the management of RH. Currently, aprocitentan is the sole endothelin receptor antagonist (ERA) under development for addressing this pressing clinical challenge. Aprocitentan (ACT-132577), deriving its active form as a metabolite of macitentan, demonstrates oral potency as a dual endothelin (ET) receptor antagonist. This compound effectively obstructs the binding of endothelin-1 (ET-1) to both ETA and ETB receptors, exhibiting an inhibitory potency ratio of 1:16. Clinical investigation of aprocitentan has advanced to phase 3 trials, yielding promising preliminary outcomes.
