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

Genetic mapping of the progeny of an F(2) inter-cross between WKY and WKHA rats had previously allowed us to detect male-specific linkage between locus Cm 24 and left ventricular mass index (LVMI). By further expanding that analysis, we detected additional loci that were all linked to LVMI in a sex-specific manner despite their autosomal location. In males, we detected one additional locus (Lvm 8) on Chromosome 5 (LOD=3.4), the two loci Lvm 13 (LOD=4.5) and Lvm 9 (LOD=2.8) on Chromosome 17, and locus Lvm 10 (LOD=4.2) on Chromosome 12. The locus Lvm 13 had the same boundaries as locus Cm 26 previously reported by others using a different cross. None of these loci showed linkage to LVM in females. In contrast, we identified in females the novel locus Lvm 11 on Chromosome 15 (LOD=2.8) and locus Lvm 12 (LOD=2.7) that had the same boundaries on Chromosome 3 as locus Cm 25 detected previously by others using a cross of other normotensive strains. In prepubertal males, there were no differences in the width of cardiomyocytes from WKY and WKHA rats, but cardiomyocytes from WKHA became progressively wider than that of WKY as sexual maturation progressed. Altogether, these results provide evidence that distinct genes may influence LVMI of rats in a sex-dependent manner, maybe by involving sex-specific interactions of sex steroids with particular genes involved in the determination of LVMI and/or cardiomyocyte width.
