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

objectiveOur previous studies found that angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) is an endogenous counter-factor of angiotensin II (Ang-II). However, the balance between Ang-II and Ang-(1-7) in the development of human coronary atherosclerosis is not determined. METHODS AND

resultsThe plasma levels of Ang-II and Ang-(1-7) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 112 patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing coronary angiography. Patients were divided into three groups based on the coronary angiography as follows: (1) normal (n = 13); (2) noncritical CAD (<50% stenosis, n = 17); and (3) critical CAD (⩾50% stenosis, n = 82). The plasma levels of Ang-II, Ang-(1-7) and the ratio of Ang-II and Ang-(1-7) (Ang-II/Ang-(1-7) were comparable between the normal and noncritical CAD groups. However, Ang-II, Ang-(1-7), and especially Ang-II/Ang-(1-7), were elevated in patients with critical CAD, compared with patients with normal or noncritical CAD. The level of Ang-II/Ang-(1-7) was positively associated with serious coronary stenosis, and correlated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) level.

conclusionBoth Ang-II and Ang-(1-7) expression are significantly increased in patients with critical CAD. However, increased Ang-II/Ang-(1-7) ratios may lead to Ang-II over-activation and aggravate atherosclerosis progression.
