Review in Molecular and cellular endocrinology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Addition of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists to standard therapy for heart failure, kidney disease, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes is increasing steadily in response to clinical trials demonstrating clear benefits. In addition to blocking deleterious activity of MR within the heart, vessels and kidneys, MR antagonists target MR in hemodynamic regulatory centers in the brain, thereby decreasing excessive sympathetic nervous system drive, vasopressin release, abnormal baroreceptor function, and circulating and tissue pro-inflammatory cytokines. However, brain MR are also involved with cognition, memory, affect and functions yet to be determined. Understanding specific central mechanisms involved in blood pressure regulation by MR is necessary for the development of agents to target downstream events specific to central hemodynamic regulation, not only to avoid the hypokalemia caused by inhibition of renal tubular MR, but also to avoid untoward long term effects of inhibiting brain MR that are not involved in blood pressure control.
