Aldosterone, Renin, and Diabetes Mellitus in African Americans: The Jackson Heart Study.
Article in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 35 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
contextPrevious research has suggested that activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system may promote insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction, but the association with incident diabetes in African Americans is unknown.
objectiveWe examined the association of aldosterone and renin with insulin resistance, β-cell function, and incident diabetes in a large African American cohort.
designThe Jackson Heart Study is a prospective study of the development and progression of cardiovascular disease in African Americans.
settingParticipants were recruited from the tricounty area of metropolitan Jackson, Mississippi.
participantsA total of 5301 African American adults, aged 21–94 years, were assessed at baseline and through 12 years of follow-up. Data on aldosterone, renin, and risk factors were collected at baseline (2000–2004). Diabetes (fasting glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL, physician diagnosis, use of diabetes drugs, or glycated hemoglobin ≥ 6.5%) was assessed at baseline and through 12 years of follow-up. Participants were excluded for missing data on baseline covariates or diabetes follow-up. Cox regression was used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) for incident diabetes using sequential modeling adjusting for age, sex, education, occupation, systolic blood pressure, current smoking, physical activity, dietary intake, and body mass index. EXPOSURES: Aldosterone, renin, and diabetes risk factors were measured. OUTCOME: Outcomes included the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and incident diabetes.
resultsAmong 3234 participants over a median of 8.0 years of follow-up, there were 554 cases of incident diabetes. Every 1% increase in log-transformed aldosterone was associated with a 0.18% higher log-transformed HOMA-IR in cross-sectional analyses of nondiabetic participants (P < .001). Log-transformed aldosterone and renin levels in the fifth vs first quintile were associated with a 78% (HR 1.78, 95% confidence interval 1.35–2.34) and 35% (HR 1.35, 95% confidence interval 1.06–1.72) increase in diabetes risk, respectively, in fully adjusted models.
conclusionsActivation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system may play a significant role in the development of insulin resistance and diabetes in African Americans.
