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

backgroundThe intrarenal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in the development of hypertension and renal damage. Disruption of diurnal blood pressure (BP) variation is an additional risk factor for renal damage. However, little is known regarding whether intrarenal RAS circadian rhythm exists or if it influences the disruption of diurnal BP and renal damage.

methodsWe investigated the circadian rhythm of urinary angiotensinogen (U-AGT) that reflects intrarenal RAS activity in 14 individuals without chronic kidney disease (CKD) and 36 CKD patients classified according to circadian BP rhythms.

resultsBP values were higher during the daytime than during the nighttime in both individuals without CKD and CKD patients. U-AGT levels were not different between the daytime and nighttime in individuals without CKD, but were significantly higher in the daytime in CKD patients (log U-AGT/creatinine: daytime, 2.39 ± 0.99; nighttime, 2.24 ± 1.06; p = 0.001). Furthermore, in CKD patients showing a riser pattern of circadian BP, U-AGT levels did not decrease during the nighttime compared with those in the daytime (log U-AGT/creatinine: daytime, 2.51 ± 0.65; nighttime, 2.52 ± 0.71; p = 0.78). Circadian fluctuation of albuminuria and proteinuria occurred parallel to that of the U-AGT levels. U-AGT levels were significantly and positively correlated with the levels of BP and circadian fluctuation of U-AGT was correlated with diurnal BP changes.

conclusionThese data suggest that the circadian rhythm of intrarenal RAS activation may lead to renal damage and hypertension, which are associated with diurnal BP variation.
