Review in Current hypertension reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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

Mutations in the bone morphogenetic protein type II receptor (BMPR-II) gene (BMPR2) have been recognized to cause heritable PAH (HPAH). Recent studies focused on novel BMPR2 mutations in the Asian population and provided evidence for genotype-phenotype correlations. A candidate gene strategy has suggested additional mutations in SMAD, TBX4 and TSP1 in PAH. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified an association at the CBLN2 locus with PAH. Studies have addressed the role of additional factors required for disease penetrance. The unbalance between TGF β1 and BMPRII signaling may stimulate inflammatory cytokine expression and leukocyte extravasation. Epigenetics, including DNA methylation and microRNAs, appear to play a role in the development of PAH. Next-generation sequencing with advances in bioinformatics will provide further insights into the underlying genetic and epigenetic architecture underlying the pathobiology of PAH.
