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

Inappropriate sympathetic activation is closely associated with the development and progression of hypertension. Renal denervation (RDN) is a neuromodulation therapy performed using an intraarterial catheter in patients with hypertension. Recent randomized sham-operated controlled trials have shown that RDN has significant antihypertensive effects that last for at least 3 years. Based on this evidence, RDN is nearly ready for general clinical application. On the other hand, there are remaining issues to be addressed, including elucidation of the precise antihypertensive mechanisms of RDN, the appropriate endpoint of RDN during the procedure, and the association between reinnervation after RDN and the long-term effects of RDN. This mini review focuses on studies implicating anatomy of the renal nerves, which consist of afferent or efferent and sympathetic or parasympathetic nerves, the response of blood pressure to renal nerve stimulation, and reinnervation of renal nerves after RDN. A comprehensive understanding of the anatomical and functional aspects of the renal nerves and the antihypertensive mechanisms of RDN, including its long-term effects, will enhance our ability to incorporate RDN into strategies to treat hypertension in clinical practice. This mini review focuses on studies implicating anatomy of the renal nerves, which consist of afferent or efferent and sympathetic or parasympathetic nerves, the response of blood pressure to renal nerve stimulation, and reinnervation of renal nerves after renal denervation. Whether the ablation site is sympathetic dominant or parasympathetic dominant, and afferent dominant or efferent dominant, would in turn determine the final output of renal denervation. BP: blood pressure.
