Oxidative stress contributes to sex differences in angiotensin II-mediated hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

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.
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
NADPH oxidase has been implicated in ANG II-induced oxidative stress and hypertension in males; however, the contribution of oxidative stress to ANG II hypertension in females is unknown. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that greater antioxidant capacity in female spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) blunts ANG II-induced oxidative stress and hypertension relative to males. Whole body and renal cortical oxidative stress levels were assessed in female and male SHR left untreated or following 2 wk of chronic ANG II infusion. Chronic ANG II infusion increased NADPH oxidase enzymatic activity in the renal cortex of both sexes; however, this increase only reached significance in female SHR. In contrast, male SHR demonstrated a greater increase in all measurements of reactive oxygen species production in response to chronic ANG II infusion. ANG II infusion increased plasma superoxide dismutase activity only in female SHR (76 ± 9 vs. 190 ± 7 Units·ml(-1)·mg(-1), P < 0.05); however, cortical antioxidant capacity was unchanged by ANG II in either sex. To assess the functional implication of alterations in NADPH enzymatic activity and oxidative stress levels following ANG II infusion, additional experiments assessed the ability of the in vivo antioxidant apocynin to modulate ANG II hypertension. Apocynin significantly blunted ANG II hypertension in male SHR (174 ± 2 vs. 151 ± 1 mmHg, P < 0.05), with no effect in females (160 ± 11 vs. 163 ± 10 mmHg). These data suggest that ANG II hypertension in male SHR is more dependent on increases in oxidative stress than in female SHR.
