Esaxerenone improves the blood pressure and metabolic parameters of hypertensive subjects with diabetes.
Observational study in Endocrine journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Esaxerenone, a nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor blocker, may be an effective treatment for diabetes-associated mineralocorticoid receptor-related hypertension, but there have been few studies of its use in clinical practice. We aimed to determine the effects of esaxerenone on blood pressure (BP) and metabolic parameters of hypertensive subjects with diabetes in a clinical practice setting. We performed a retrospective multicenter observational study of hypertensive subjects with type 2 diabetes/prediabetes. We first compared the values of parameters at baseline and after 6 months of esaxerenone administration, then compared the changes in the parameters in propensity score-matched subjects who initiated esaxerenone or amlodipine administration. Correlation analysis was performed to identify factors associated with these changes. The single-arm analysis showed that esaxerenone caused significant reductions in systolic and diastolic BP from 155.2 ± 17.7 and 83.3 ± 12.3 mmHg at baseline to 132.9 ± 15.5 and 72.3 ± 12.9 mmHg, respectively, after 6 months of treatment (p < 0.01). In addition, body mass index (BMI), glycated hemoglobin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and urine albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) significantly decreased (p < 0.05). The esaxerenone group showed significantly larger reductions in systolic BP, AST, ALT, and UACR than the amlodipine group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, there was a negative correlation between the change in ALT and baseline BMI (p < 0.05). Esaxerenone has an antihypertensive effect, reduces the albuminuria, and reduces the activities of liver enzymes in hypertensive subjects with type 2 diabetes/prediabetes. The present findings suggest that esaxerenone has pleiotropic effects in such subjects.
