Familial aggregation of insulin resistance and cardiovascular risk factors in hypertension.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The authors assessed the familial aggregation of cardiometabolic abnormalities (elevated homeostasis model assessment [HOMA], triglycerides [TG], and low-density lipoprotein [LDL] and reduced high-density lipoprotein [HDL]) among hypertensive siblings (N=287 from 138 families). Evidence for familial aggregation required sibling-pair concordance of outcome variables dichotomized according to predefined values (concordance for highest-quartile HOMA [>3.3], TG [>170 mg/dL], and LDL [>138 mg/dL] and lowest-quartile HOMA for HDL [<32 mg/dL]). Hypertensive individuals with insulin resistance (high-quartile HOMA) had higher TG and lower HDL and LDL levels compared with insulin-sensitive hypertensives. High-quartile HOMA, TG, and LDL aggregated in hypertensive families, and TG plus HOMA coaggregated. HDL did not show aggregation. In a multivariate logistic regression, the only significant predictor of an individual's HOMA status was a sibling's HOMA status in a model including age, sex, race, and body mass index (odds ratio=9.12; 95% confidence interval, 3.64-23.14; P<.001). Cardiometabolic variables demonstrate heritability in hypertensive families. Further exploration of common genetic susceptibility loci in hypertension involving these factors is warranted.
