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

purpose of reviewRecent efforts to explore the genetic underpinnings of hypertension revealed rare mutations in kidney salt transport genes contribute to blood pressure (BP) variation and hypertension susceptibility in the general population. The current review focuses on these latest findings, highlighting a discussion about the rare mutations and how they affect the transport function. RECENT

findingsRare mutations that confer a low BP trait and resistance to hypertension have recently been extensively studied. Physiological and biochemical analyses of the affected renal salt transport molecules [NKCC2 (SLC12A1), ROMK (KCNJ1), and NCC (SLC12A3)] revealed that most of the mutations do, in fact, cause a loss of transport function. The mutations disrupt the transport by many different mechanisms, including altering biosynthetic processing, trafficking, ion transport, and regulation. SUMMARY: New insights into the genetic basis of hypertension have recently emerged, supporting a major role of rare, rather than common, gene variants. Many different rare mutations have been found to affect the functions of different salt transporter genes by different mechanisms, yet all confer the same BP phenotype. These studies reinforce the critical roles of the kidney, and renal salt transport in BP regulation and hypertension.
