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

This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of lorundrostat in adults with uncontrolled hypertension. Following PRISMA guidelines and PROSPERO registration (CRD420251088503), five databases were systematically searched through July 2025 for randomized controlled trials comparing lorundrostat with placebo in this population. The primary outcome was change in systolic blood pressure (SBP), while secondary outcomes included diastolic blood pressure, severe BP events, and adverse effects. Three RCTs comprising 1568 participants across 10 study arms were included. Lorundrostat significantly reduced 24-h ambulatory SBP (mean difference [MD]: -7.45 mmHg; 95% CI: -12.54 to -2.36; p = 0.0041; p
