Article in American journal of physiology. Heart and circulatory physiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04770155 (Vascular Dysfunction in Black Individuals), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers.

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.

Abstract

Previous studies have demonstrated that African-American (AA) individuals have heightened vasoconstrictor and reduced vasodilator responses under resting conditions compared with Caucasian-American (CA) individuals. However, potential differences in vascular responses to exercise remain unclear. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that, compared with CA subjects, AA subjects would present an attenuated increase in forearm vascular conductance (FVC) during rhythmic handgrip exercise. Forearm blood flow (FBF; duplex Doppler ultrasound) and mean arterial pressure (MAP; finger photoplethysmography) were measured in healthy young CA ( n = 10) and AA ( n = 10) men during six trials of rhythmic handgrip performed at workloads of 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 kg. FVC (calculated as FBF/MAP), FBF, and MAP were similar between groups at rest (FVC: 63 ± 7 ml·min
