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

Hypertension is a common disorder of multifactorial origin that constitutes a major risk factor for cardiovascular events such as stroke and myocardial infarction. The subunits of the heterotrimeric G proteins are attractive candidate gene products for susceptibility to hypertension, obesity and insulin resistance syndrome. A polymorphism (825C/T) in exon 10 of the GNB3 gene, encoding for the Gβ3 subunit, has been described. The 825T allele is associated with alternative splicing of the gene and formation of a truncated but functionally active β3 subunit. Many studies have investigated whether carriers of the 825T allele are at increased risk for hypertension, obesity, insulin-resistance and left ventricular hypertrophy with apparently conflicting results. The present review demonstrates that GNB3 825T allele is a useful genetic marker for better defining the risk profile of hypertensive patients, as it is associated with increased risk of stroke and myocardial infarction in longitudinal studies in Caucasians.
