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

The currently available data have indicated that dietary salt is directly correlated with blood pressure (BP) and the occurrence of hypertension. However, the salt sensitivity of BP is different in each individual. Genetic factors and environmental factors influence the salt sensitivity of BP. Obesity, stress, and aging are strongly associated with increased BP salt sensitivity. Indeed, a complex and interactive genetic and environmental system can determine an individual's BP salt sensitivity. However, the genetic/epigenetic determinants leading to salt sensitivity of BP are still challenging to identify primarily because lifestyle-related diseases, including hypertension, usually become a medical problem during adulthood, although their causes may be attributed to the earlier stages of ontogeny. The association between distinct developmental periods involves changes in gene expression, which include epigenetic phenomena. The role of epigenetic modification in the development of salt-sensitive hypertension is presently under investigation. Recently, we identified aberrant DNA methylation in the context of prenatally programmed hypertension. In this review, we summarize the existing knowledge regarding the pathophysiological mechanisms of salt-sensitive hypertension. Additionally, we discuss the contribution of epigenetic mechanisms in the development of salt-sensitive hypertension.
