Epidemiology of essential hypertension: the role of genetic polymorphism.
Article in European journal of epidemiology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Over the past 20 years, the interest of the scientific community was increasingly placed in the field of genetic epidemiology and molecular genetics of blood pressure control. This paper explores references related to essential hypertension, gene and genetic epidemiology indexed in the MedLine health science database during the period 1980-2001. A systematic literature search was performed using selected keywords, such as 'genetic', 'genome' or a combination of words. We considered the study heading and evaluated the time profile of published articles. A total number of 3116 publications was collected and analyzed. Allelic distribution for the most studied polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin system in different world populations was reviewed and reported together with a detection of their frequency in Italy: essential hypertensive patients (n = 90), healthy unrelated subjects (n = 300). Molecular variants at angiotensinogen (M and T), angiotensin II type 1 receptor (A and C) and angiotensin-converting enzyme (D and I) genes were analyzed by amplified fragment length polymorphism. A significant association was detected by chi2 analysis for angiotensinogen and angiotensin II-type I receptor allele distribution in hypertensive patients, in accordance with previous reports. Genetic data and methods are contributing more and more to epidemiological studies of complex diseases, and their application is influenced by information availability and Genome Project results.
