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

backgroundPreeclampsia is associated with increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the antiangiogenic factor, soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1). Moreover, recent studies have indicated that chronic sFlt-1 excess causes hypertension in pregnant animals. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of ROS in mediating sFlt-1-induced hypertension in the pregnant rat.

methodsMean arterial pressure (MAP), and plasma sFlt-1 and tissue ROS levels were measured in the following groups: (i) pregnant controls; (ii) sFlt-1-treated pregnant rats; (iii) Tempol-treated pregnant rats; (iv) sFlt-1- and Tempol-treated pregnant rats.

resultsMAP increased from 104 ± 2 mm Hg in pregnant control rats to 118 ± 3 mm Hg (P = 0.002) in sFlt-1-infused rats. Basal and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-stimulated levels of tissue ROS were increased in response to excess sFlt-1 during pregnancy. Pretreatment with Tempol attenuated oxidative stress and hypertension in response to sFlt-1.

conclusionsROS play an important role in mediating hypertension in response to chronic sFlt-1 excess during pregnancy.
