Orthostatic hypotension is associated with higher levels of circulating endostatin.
Article in European heart journal open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Aims: The pathophysiology of orthostatic hypotension (OH), a common clinical condition, associated with adverse outcomes, is incompletely understood. We examined the relationship between OH and circulating endostatin, an endogenous angiogenesis inhibitor with antitumour effects proposed to be involved in blood pressure (BP) regulation. Methods and results: We compared endostatin levels in 146 patients with OH and 150 controls. A commercial chemiluminescence sandwich immunoassay was used to measure circulating levels of endostatin. Linear and multivariate logistic regressions were conducted to test the association between endostatin and OH. Endostatin levels were significantly higher in OH patients (59 024 ± 2513 pg/mL) vs. controls (44 090 ± 1978pg/mL, Conclusion: Circulating endostatin is elevated in patients with OH and may serve as a potential clinical marker of increased cardiovascular risk in patients with OH. Our findings call for external validation. Further research is warranted to clarify the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.
