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

backgroundHypertension is a major global public health problem that affects both pediatric and adult populations. ACE I/D, AGT M235T, and ADD Gly460Trp polymorphisms are thought to be associated with primary hypertension. In the present study, we examined the frequency of these polymorphisms in a pediatric population with secondary hypertension. MATERIAL AND

methodsIncluded in the study were 58 hypertensive and 58 normotensive pediatric patients. ACE I/D and AGT M235T polymorphisms are determined by conventional PCR; ADD Gly460Trp polymorphism was investigated using PCR amplification of genomic DNA.

resultsThere were significant differences between the control group and pediatric hypertensive group in terms of ACE I/D (P<0.05) and AGT M235T (P<0.05) polymorphisms, but there were no differences in ADD Gly460Trp (P>0.05) polymorphism.

conclusionsWe suggest that RAS gene polymorphisms (ACE-I/D, AGT M235T) are significantly associated with susceptibility to diseases that lead to secondary hypertension.
