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

It has been increasingly appreciated that steroids elicit acute vascular effects through rapid, so-called nongenomic signaling pathways. Though aldosterone, for example, has been demonstrated to mediate rapid vascular effects via both mineralocorticoid receptor-dependent and -independent pathways, the mechanism(s) of this mineralocorticoid receptor-independent effect of aldosterone is yet to be determined. For estrogen, its rapid effects have been reported to be, at least in part, mediated via the 7-transmembrane-spanning, G protein-coupled receptor GPR30. Previous studies have demonstrated common response outcomes in response to both aldosterone and estrogen on GPR30 expression, ie, activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent contraction and extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation in vascular smooth muscle cells. The present studies were undertaken to test the hypothesis that the rapid response to aldosterone in smooth muscle is dependent on the availability of a GPR30-dependent signaling pathway. These findings not only reconcile differences in the literature for aldosterone response in freshly isolated versus cultured aortic smooth muscle cells but also suggest alternative therapeutic strategies for modulating aldosterone actions on the vasculature in vivo.
