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

Recent advances in genome technology have enabled genome-wide searching for disease predisposition loci, using dense SNP and haplotype maps. Over the past year, such approaches have yielded positive results in human hypertension. Here we outline factors underlying the rationale for the approach and consider reasons for false positive and negative results. Although the approach has yielded positive results, typically the trait-associated loci explain only a small fraction of the heritable fraction of trait variance. Finally, we consider alternative approaches and emerging strategies to probe the role of heredity in control of blood pressure.
