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

Metabolic and functional abnormalities in the kidney precede or coincide with the initiation of overt hypertension in the Dahl salt-sensitive (SS) rat. However, renal histological injury in SS rats is mild before the development of overt hypertension. We performed electron microscopy analysis in 7-wk-old SS rats and salt-insensitive consomic SS.13(BN) rats and Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats fed a 4% NaCl diet for 7 days. Long mitochondria (>2 μm) accounted for a significantly smaller fraction of mitochondria in medullary thick ascending limbs in SS rats (4% ± 1%) than in SS.13(BN) rats (8% ± 1%, P < 0.05 vs. SS rats) and SD rats (9% ± 1%, P < 0.01 vs. SS rats), consistent with previous findings of mitochondrial functional insufficiency in the medulla of SS rats. Long mitochondria in proximal tubules, however, were more abundant in SS rats than in SS.13(BN) and SD rats. The width of the endoplasmic reticulum, an index of endoplasmic reticulum stress, was significantly greater in medullary thick ascending limbs of SS rats (107 ± 1 nm) than in SS.13(BN) rats (95 ± 2 nm, P < 0.001 vs. SS rats) and SD rats (74 ± 3 nm, P < 0.01 vs. SS or SS.13(BN) rats). The tubules examined were indistinguishable between rat strains under light microscopy. These data indicate that ultrastructural abnormalities occur in the medullary thick ascending limbs of SS rats before the development of histological injury in renal tubules, providing a potential structural basis contributing to the subsequent development of overt hypertension.
