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

backgroundPortal hypertension is characterized by exaggerated activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis. Natriuretic peptide system plays a counter-regulatory role, which is modulated by neprilysin. LCZ696 (sacubitril/valsartan) is a dual angiotensin receptor and neprilysin inhibitor. This study evaluated the effect of LCZ696 on portal hypertensive rats.

methodsPortal hypertension was induced by partial portal vein ligation (PVL) in rats. LCZ696, valsartan (angiotensin receptor blocker), or normal saline (control) was administered in PVL rats for 10 days. Then, hemodynamic and biochemistry data were obtained. The hepatic histology and protein expressions were surveyed. On the parallel groups, the portal-systemic shunting degrees were determined.

resultsLCZ696 and valsartan reduced mean arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance. LCZ696, but not valsartan, reduced portal pressure in portal hypertensive rats (control vs. valsartan vs. LCZ696: 15.4 ± 1.6 vs. 14.0 ± 2.3 vs. 12.0 ± 2.0 mmHg, control vs. LCZ696:

conclusionLCZ696 and valsartan reduced mean arterial pressure through peripheral vasodilation. Furthermore, LCZ696 significantly reduced portal pressure in PVL rats via hepatic ET-1 downregulation.
