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

There is a growing frustration with the limitations and inconsistencies of single locus candidate gene association and linkage studies. This frustration is exacerbated by the knowledge that a large influx of genotypic and gene expression data is expected to emerge over the next 5 years, and we are not prepared for the type of multigenic conceptual framework that will be necessary to analyze that data. A review of the hypertension genetic literature reveals substantial evidence for the importance of both genetic and environmental contexts on the mapping between single locus polymorphisms and risk of disease. These trends indicate that the current reliance on simple single gene studies to elucidate the complex etiology of hypertension needs to undergo some kind of transformation. It is suggested that even a minor shift to a more systematic investigation of context-dependent effects will increase our understanding of the multidimensional genetic and environmental realities underneath current studies. This shift is also necessary if we are to gain a deeper understanding of the specific ways in which an individual's risk of hypertension is a consequence of the inter- actions among genes and environments.
