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

purpose of reviewAldosterone causes tissue inflammation leading to fibrosis and remodeling in the heart, vasculature, and kidney. We summarize recent data regarding the mechanism(s) through which aldosterone stimulates inflammation. RECENT

findingsStudies elucidate the cell-specific effects of mineralocorticoid receptor activation on inflammatory cell infiltration and adhesion, and highlight the role of the macrophage in the development of vascular collagen deposition and hypertension. Activation of nuclear factor-kappaB in vascular smooth muscle cells involves a complex interplay between the angiotensin subtype 1 (AT1) receptor and the mineralocorticoid receptor. Activation of the mineralocorticoid receptor by aldosterone stimulates an inflammatory phenotype in adipocytes and contributes to insulin resistance by increasing oxidative stress. SUMMARY: Mechanistic studies of aldosterone-induced inflammation provide the rationale for an expanded therapeutic role for mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and aldosterone synthase inhibitors.
