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

The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is a central element in the control of the salt and water balance of the body and arterial blood pressure. The activity of the RAAS is controlled by the protease renin, which is released from renal juxtaglomerular epithelioid cells (JGE cells) into the circulation. Renin release is regulated by a complex interplay of several locally acting hormones or mechanisms and longer feedback loops one of which involves salt intake. Acute NaCl loads or longer lasting high salt intakes suppress plasma renin activity, whereas reductions in NaCl intake stimulate it. Because the activation of the RAAS conserves the salt content of the body, a classical feedback loop between salt intake/body salt content and renin is established. Despite of its important role for body fluid homeostasis, the precise signaling pathways connecting salt intake with the synthesis and release of renin are only incompletely understood. Four putative controllers of the salt-dependent regulation of the RAAS have been suggested: (1) the macula densa mechanism which adjusts renin release in response to changes in the renal tubular salt concentration; (2) salt-dependent changes in the arterial blood pressure; (3) circulating salt-dependent hormones, particularly the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP); and (4) renal sympathetic nervous activity, which is regulated by extracellular volume and arterial blood pressure. In this review, the role of these known controllers of the RAAS will be discussed with special emphasis on their relative contributions to the salt-dependent regulation of the RAAS at different time frames.
