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

The abdominal and ectopic fats increase after primary aldosteronism (PA) treatment in aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) but not idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA) has been reported. Additionally, the relationship of these fats to plasma aldosterone concentration remains unclear. This retrospective study aimed to elucidate the influence of aldosterone on body composition. We compared the body composition parameters of APA and IHA patients at baseline and after PA treatment. APA patients tended to have a smaller subcutaneous fat area (SFA) than IHA patients at baseline. The SFA, visceral fat area (VFA) and dyslipidemia prevalence of APA patients but not IHA patients significantly increased after PA treatment. The SFA and the VFA change after adrenalectomy were positively correlated with the baseline plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) in APA patients. At baseline, APA patients' intramuscular adipose tissue content (IMAC) was significantly less than that of IHA patients. The IMAC of PA patients at baseline was negatively correlated with PAC. The IMAC of APA patients but not IHA patients significantly increased after PA treatment. This study demonstrated that SFA, VFA and IMAC increased after PA treatment in APA patients but not in IHA patients, thereby suggesting a relationship between body composition and aldosterone.
