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

purposePET imaging has been recently introduced for investigating the type 1 angiotensin II receptor (AT(1)R) in vivo. The goal of the present study was to investigate the effects of acute and chronic exposure to angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) on the AT(1)R in the dog kidney.

methodsAnimals were imaged at baseline, after acute intravenous ACEI treatment and after a chronic 2-week exposure to an oral ACEI. Control animals were imaged at identical time points in the absence of ACEI treatment.

resultsIn vivo AT(1)R binding expressed by K (i) was increased in the renal cortex by chronic ACEI treatment (p < 0.05). In vitro measurements of AT(1)R density (B (max)) also revealed significant increases in AT(1)R in isolated glomeruli (p < 0.05). Plasma renin activity was increased, but angiotensin II (Ang II) and the Ang II/Ang I ratio showed a weak correlation with chronic ACEI treatment, consistent with an Ang II escape phenomenon.

conclusionThis study reveals, for the first time, that chronic ACEI treatment increases AT(1)R binding in vivo in the dog renal cortex.
