Difference in left ventricular mass index between hypertensive patients with and without renal artery stenosis by propensity score analysis.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
This study aimed to define the difference in cardiac hypertrophy between hypertensive patients with and without renal artery stenosis (RAS). When cardiac ultrasonographic examination was performed in 971 consecutive hypertensive outpatients, renal peak systolic velocity (PSV) was examined. Compared with patients without RAS, those with RAS (PSV ≥180 cm/s, 4.1%) were significantly older and included a higher proportion of male patients and had a higher left ventricular mass index (LVMI). A stratified analysis in the selected 120 patients showed that the LVMI was significantly higher in patients with RAS than in those without RAS for each confounding factor such as age and blood pressure. RAS was independently associated with a higher LVMI on propensity score analysis and multivariate analysis. Thus, the difference in LVMI between hypertensive patients with and without RAS was confirmed, irrespective of age and blood pressure, by stratified propensity score analysis and multivariate regression analysis.
