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

The endothelin (ET) system seems to play a pivotal role in hypertension and in proteinuric kidney disease, including the micro- and macro-vascular complications of diabetes. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a multifunctional peptide that primarily acts as a potent vasoconstrictor with direct effects on systemic vasculature and the kidney. ET-1 and ET receptors are expressed in the vascular smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and macrophages in systemic vasculature and arterioles of the kidney, and are associated with collagen accumulation, inflammation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and renal fibrosis. Experimental evidence and recent clinical studies suggest that endothelin receptor blockade, in particular selective ETAR blockade, holds promise in the treatment of hypertension, proteinuria, and diabetes. Concomitant blockade of the ETB receptor is not usually beneficial and may lead to vasoconstriction and salt and water retention. The side-effect profile of ET receptor antagonists and relatively poor antagonist selectivity for ETA receptor are limitations that need to be addressed. This review will discuss what is currently known about the endothelin system, the role of ET-1 in the pathogenesis of hypertension and kidney disease, and summarize literature on the therapeutic potential of endothelin system antagonism.
