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

The renin angiotensin system (RAS) controls intrarenal blood pressure and sodium balance, and is an important target for antihypertensive therapy. Several polymorphisms have been identified within genes encoding RAS that may contribute to the development of elevated blood pressure. The relevance of these polymorphisms in hypertension remains controversial. In this study we have examined 105 hypertensive subjects and 192 controls from the Indian population for I/D polymorphism of angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) and A(1166)C polymorphism of angiotensin II type I receptor (AT1R) genes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and PCR-based restriction enzyme analysis method, respectively. There was no significant difference in the distribution of ACE (I/I, I/D, and D/D) and AT1R (A/A and A/C) genotypes between controls and hypertensive subjects. D allele was significantly associated with an early onset of hypertension and although nonsignificant, the frequency was high in subjects with family history of cardiovascular disorders. C(1166) allele of AT1R did not correlate with the age of onset of hypertension and the frequency was low in subjects with family history. Thus no association was found between ACE and AT1R genotypes and hypertension. However the D allele can be used as a predictor of risk of hypertension in the Indian population.
