Complete autonomic blockade reveals nitric oxide contribution to blood pressure regulation in obese Black women.
Article in Clinical autonomic research : official journal of the Clinical Autonomic Research Society, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01122407 (Obesity, Hypertension in African American Women, Neuro-metabolic Mechanism), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
purposeHypertension is one of the major causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the USA and disproportionately affects Black women. Endothelial-derived nitric oxide (eNO) substantially regulates blood pressure in humans, and impaired NO-mediated vasodilation has been reported in the Black population. Previous studies using an NO synthase inhibitor, N
methodsL-NMMA at doses of 250 μg/kg per minute was infused in combination with trimethaphan at doses of 4 mg/min to eliminate baroreflex mechanisms. Heart rate (HR) was obtained with continuous electrocardiogram monitoring, and continuous blood pressure was measured with the volume clamp method. The increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP) during both infusions was used to estimate the contribution of NO to blood pressure.
resultsTen Black (age range 30-50 years, body mass index [BMI] 30-45 kg/m
conclusionAutonomic blood pressure regulation was similar between Black and White women. However, NO contribution to blood pressure was significantly greater in Black women compared to White women. REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01122407.
