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

backgroundEvidence from experimental studies showed that Th1, Th2, and Th17 play a pivotal role in hypertension and target organ damage. However, whether changes in the circulating Th1, Th2, and Th17 levels are associated with nondipper hypertension and carotid atherosclerotic plaque in hypertension has yet to be investigated.

methodsTh1, Th2, and Th17 levels were detected using a flow cytometric analysis, and their related cytokines were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 45 hypertensive patients and 15 normotensive subjects.

resultsThe frequencies of Th1 and Th17 in hypertensive patients, especially in nondipper patients and patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaque, were markedly higher than those in the control group; this was accompanied by higher IFN-

conclusionsThe changes in Th1, Th2, and Th17 activity are associated with the onset of the nondipper type and carotid atherosclerotic plaque in hypertensive patients.
