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

Many individuals in industrialized societies consume a high-salt, Western diet(WD); however, the effects of this diet on microcirculatory properties and glycocalyx barrier function are unknown. Young genetically heterogeneous male and female mice underwent 12 wk of normal chow (NC) diet, NC diet with 4% salt (NC4%), Western diet (WD), or WD with 4% salt (WD4%). Microcirculatory properties and glycocalyx barrier function were evaluated in the mesenteric microcirculation, using an intravital microscope equipped with an automated capture and analysis system. Total microvascular density summed across 4- to 25-μm microvessel segment diameters was lower in NC4% than in NC and WD (
