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 nearly constant feature and both a cause and a consequence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Atherosclerotic lesions showed a marked expression of pentraxin 3 on the surface of lumen and in the plaque. The aim was to assess the correlation of exon 2 of pentraxin 3 gene SNP rs3816527 with hypertension with CKD. The study was conducted on 110 CKD patients (60 patients with and 50 patients without hypertension) and 40 healthy subjects as control. Laboratory investigations including the measurement of fasting blood glucose, lipid profile, and indices of oxidative stress, liver function tests, and renal function tests were done. Genotyping of pentraxin 3 gene SNP rs3816527 was done by real-time PCR. There was a significant difference between CKD patients with hypertension and the subjects in the control group regarding systolic and diastolic BP, urea, creatinine, GFR, TG, cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and total antioxidant levels (p < 0.001). There is a statistically significant difference between CKD patients with hypertension and the other studied groups regarding the frequencies of AA genotype and A allele of exon 2 SNP of pentraxin 3 gene compared to CC genotype and C allele (wild type) (p < 0.001), while there was significant difference between CKD patients without hypertension and control (p > 0.05). Pentraxin 3 AA genotype SNP rs3816527 can be considered as a potential biomarker and a risk factor for CKD patients, especially hypertensive patients, and specifically as an independent predictor of hypertension in CKD.
