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

objectiveThe objective of this study was to measure flow-mediated dilation (FMD) prior to and following transient increases in intraluminal pressure (IILP) in resistance arterioles isolated from subjects with and without coronary artery disease (CAD) (CAD and non-CAD) and non-CAD subjects with hypertension.

methodsArterioles were isolated from discarded surgical tissues (adipose and atrial) from patients without coronary artery disease (non-CAD; ≤1 risk factor, excluding hypertension), with CAD, and non-CAD patients with hypertension (hypertension as the only risk factor). To simulate transient hypertension, increased IILP was generated (150 mmHg, 30 min) by gravity. Arterioles were constricted with endothelin-1, followed by FMD and endothelial-independent dilation prior to and following exposure to IILP.

resultsIILP reduced FMD in non-CAD and CAD arterioles relative to pre-IILP (p <.05 at 100 cmH

conclusionsAcute exposure (30 min) to IILP (150 mmHg) attenuates the magnitude of FMD in non-CAD and CAD resistance arterioles. The presence of clinically diagnosed hypertension in non-CAD resistance arterioles preserves the magnitude of FMD following IILP as a result of a compensatory switch from NO to H
