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: Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the leading cause of secondary hypertension globally and is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, the cardiac impact of concomitant albuminuria remains unknown. Objective: To compare anatomical and functional remodeling of left ventricle (LV) in PA patients with or without albuminuria. Design: Prospective cohort study. Methods: The cohort was separated into two arms according to the presence or absence of albuminuria (>30 mg/g of morning spot urine). Propensity score matching with age, sex, systolic blood pressure, and diabetes mellitus was performed. Multivariate analysis was conducted with adjustments for age, sex, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, duration of hypertension, smoking, diabetes mellitus, number of antihypertensive agents, and aldosterone level. A local-linear model with bandwidth of 2.07 was used to study correlations. Results: A total of 519 individuals with PA were enrolled in the study, of whom 152 had albuminuria. After matching, the albuminuria group had a higher creatinine level, at baseline. With regard to LV remodeling, albuminuria was independently associated with a significantly higher interventricular septum (1.22 > 1.17 cm, Conclusion: The presence of concomitant albuminuria in patients with PA was associated with pronounced LV hypertrophy and compromised LV diastolic function. These alterations were reversible after treatment for PA. Plain language summary:
