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

Fluid and electrolyte balance in the human organism is controlled by aldosterone, a mineralocorticoid hormone of the suprarenal glands. The major target cells are localized in the kidney where the hormone controls transepithelial salt transport. Over the past few years, evidence has been accumulated that cells of the cardiovascular system are also targeted by the hormone. As an example, endothelial cells resemble similar mechanisms triggered by aldosterone as shown for the kidney. Although the pathological alterations induced by aldosterone excess are obvious, the physiological changes are largely unknown. On the basis of recent experiments, using atomic force microscopy as an imaging tool and a mechanical sensor, I present a hypothesis on the physiological role of aldosterone in endothelial function and its potential implications in the control of blood pressure.
