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

This study investigated associations of brachial and central blood pressure (BP) with detailed renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) components in a healthy young population stratified according to ethnicity and sex. We included healthy black men (n = 285) and women (n = 304) and white men (n = 278) and women (n = 305) aged 20-30 years old. We derived central systolic BP (cSBP), measured clinic and 24-h systolic and diastolic BP. Aldosterone and equilibrium angiotensin levels were assessed and used for calculating angiotensin-derived markers for plasma renin activity (PRA-S, Angiotensin I + Angiotensin II), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE-S, Angiotensin II/Angiotensin I), and two markers for adrenal effects of angiotensin II, the aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR-S, Aldosterone/PRA-S) and the aldosterone-to-angiotensin II-ratio (AA2-R, Aldosterone/Angiotensin II)
