Elevated Plasma Renin Activity Caused by Accelerated-malignant Hypertension in a Patient with Aldosterone-producing Adenoma Complicated with Renal Insufficiency.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
During the malignant phase of hypertension in patients with primary aldosteronism complicated with severe renal failure, the plasma renin activity may markedly increase with a false negative screening result for primary aldosteronism, thus potentially leading to a missed diagnosis of primary aldosteronism. We herein report the case of 37-year-old man who presented with accelerated-malignant hypertension complicated with severe renal insufficiency. The plasma renin activity was markedly increased in the malignant phase of hypertension, which were atypical results for primary aldosteronism. However, a plain abdominal computed tomography scan revealed a left adrenal nodule, which was diagnosed as aldosterone-producing adenoma by adrenal venous sampling.
