Sonographic evaluation of hypertension: Role of atrophic index and renal resistive index.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Hypertension can cause structural and functional renal damage. Intrarenal ultrasound parameters have been extensively investigated in hypertensive patients and among the parameters introduced, the renal resistive index (RI) is associated with the progression of chronic kidney disease and hypertension. Atrophic index (AI) is an indirect anatomical ultrasound index that reports the atrophic changes of the renal parenchyma and it is mainly studied in chronic glomerular diseases. The present study aimed to evaluate renal RI and AI in hypertensive patients with normal renal function. AI showed correlations with all parameters associated with renal function reduction (age, creatinine, and intrarenal arterial stiffness). AI, in combination with RI, can represent in hypertensive patients an additional marker for renal damage progression.
