Hypertension in the context of adiposity — evidence across compounds
Every compound the Institute assesses in hypertension in the context of adiposity, with its certainty rating.
§2Evidence across compounds
Every compound the Institute assesses in this indication, with the effect as recorded, the certainty rating and the contributing trials. Effects are reported on the anchor outcome where the contributing trials measured it and on the outcome the trial actually reported where they did not.
Table 1. Compounds assessed in hypertension in the context of adiposity, ordered by certainty.
| Compound | Effect as recorded | Interval as reported | Certainty | Trials |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SemaglutideGLP-1 receptor agonist (acylated, long-acting) | Systolic blood pressure −6.2 mmHg versus −1.1 mmHg with placebo (STEP 1) | difference −5.1 mmHg (95 % CI −6.3 to −3.9) | Moderate | 2 |
