Mineralocorticoid receptor p.I180V polymorphism: association with body mass index and LDL-cholesterol levels.
Article in Journal of endocrinological investigation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimsAldosterone and the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) play a major role in sodium balance and blood pressure control. They are also involved in adipocyte metabolism. The aim of this study was to analyze the association between the MR p.I180V polymorphism with hypertension and markers of cardiovascular risk. DESIGN AND
methodsCase-control study nested within a cohort of 2063 subjects followed since birth to date. All subjects (age 23-25 yr old) from the entire cohort with systolic and diastolic hypertension (no.=126) were paired with 398 normotensive controls. MR p.I180V genotype association with anthropometric and biochemical markers of cardiometabolic risk was tested.
resultsThere was a significant association of the MR p.I180V genotype with body mass index (BMI) and LDL-cholesterol level (p<0.01). Hypertensive subjects carrying the polymorphic G allele (AG or GG genotypes) presented significantly higher BMI (30.0+/-6.0 vs 28.7+/-5.6 kg/m(2); p<0.01) and higher LDL-cholesterol (139.9+/-60.3 vs 109.9+/-35.5 mg/dl; p<0.01). The frequency of the polymorphism MR p.I180V was similar between hypertensive subjects and controls (p=0.15).
conclusionsThe MR p.I180V polymorphism seems to be associated with cardiovascular risk factors including BMI and LDL-cholesterol levels. This original in vivo finding reinforces the role of MR in adipocyte biology and in cardiovascular disease.
