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

Introduction: Calcium channel blockers (CCBs) show notable interindividual variability in antihypertensive response. This study evaluated the association of a pharmacogenomics (PGx)-guided antihypertensive strategy incorporating Methods: This secondary exploratory analysis included patients receiving CCB-containing regimens from two previously completed multicenter randomized cohorts conducted in Hunan and Fujian provinces, China. The Hunan cohort assessed a 4-week PGx-guided strategy combined with structured management, while the Fujian cohort evaluated genotype-guided treatment during 4-8 weeks after an initial standardized management phase. The primary endpoint was BP control at the last follow-up; secondary endpoints included changes in systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP), medication use, and short-term safety outcomes. Multivariable regression models were used to adjust for prespecified clinical covariates. Results: A total of 4608 patients in Hunan and 418 patients in Fujian were included. In the Hunan cohort, the genotype-guided group had higher 4‑week BP control (81.83% vs 25.07%; adjusted OR = 14.56, P < 0.001) and greater SBP/DBP decreases. In the Fujian cohort, genotype-guided therapy was associated with higher 8‑week BP control (81.74% vs 77.39%; adjusted OR = 2.43, P = 0.003) and greater DBP decrease. Associations were stronger among patients whose BP remained uncontrolled after standardized management. No short-term safety concerns were identified. Conclusion: A genotype-guided antihypertensive strategy incorporating CCB-related PGx information, including
