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

Background We have previously reported the feasibility of noninvasive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as a novel approach for renal denervation. Methods and Results Herein, from a translational point of view, we assessed the antihypertensive effect and chronological evolution of SBRT-induced renal nerve injury within 6 months in a hypertensive swine model. Hypertension was induced in swine by subcutaneous implantation of deoxycorticosterone acetate pellets in combination with a high-salt diet. A single dose of 25 Gy with SBRT was delivered for renal denervation in 9 swine within 3.4±1.0 minutes. Blood pressure levels at baseline and 1 and 6 months post-SBRT were comparable to control (n=5), whereas renal norepinephrine was significantly lower at 6 months (
