Update on G-protein polymorphisms in hypertension.
Review in Current hypertension reports, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The classic candidate gene approach continues to be the most prevalent tool in the search for the genetic basis of essential hypertension. With the list of candidate genes for this disorder steadily increasing, the pertussis toxin-sensitive inhibitory G protein (Gi) protein beta3 subunit (GNB3) gene has remained "sizzling," challenging the domination of the renin-angiotensin system. Is the genetic variability of GNB3 a causative factor underlying the pathogenesis of essential hypertension? Is the "functional" polymorphism, C825T, only "another" of the countless single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) for this disorder after all? As such, does its presence merely reinforce our confidence that essential hypertension is indeed polygenic? Should the C825T polymorphism be used in clinical practice and individualized antihypertensive treatment? Currently, there are still more questions than answers. In this review, in conjunction with our own research, we bring readers up to date on the latest developments of GNB3 polymorphisms in the field of hypertension.
