•     “The evidence review did not include observational studies, systematic reviews, or meta-analyses, and the panel did not conduct its own meta-analysis based on prespecified inclusion criteria. Thus, information from these types of studies was not incorporated into the evidence statements or recommendations.”
•      “Although adverse effects and harms of antihypertensive treatment documented in the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were considered when the panel made its decisions, the review was not designed to determine whether therapy-associated adverse effects and harms resulted in significant changes in important health outcomes.”

流れが変わってきたのか？

わるいことではないと私は思う。
