Expression of adrenergic and cholinergic receptors on peripheral blood leucocytes of adolescents with primary hypertension.
Article in Journal of human hypertension, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
We assessed the expression of adrenergic (AR) and cholinergic α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR) in peripheral blood leucocytes (PBL) in untreated adolescents with primary hypertension (PH).
methods49 yet untreated adolescents with PH in a mean age of 15.2 ± 1.9 years, and 47 healthy, normotensive adolescents, matched both for sex and age (mean age of 14.7 ± 1.0 years) were included in the study. The percentage of positive cells (PPC) and mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of PBL and monocytes was analyzed.
resultsin hypertensive adolescents PBL and monocytes presented greater PPC and MFI of AR and α7nAChR in comparison with normotensive group. Carotid intima-media thickness and carotid wall cross sectional area correlated with extracellular MIF of α1AR (r = 0.438 and r = 0.602, respectively; p < 0.05), left ventricular mass index with extracellular MFI of α7nAChR (r = 0.340; p < 0.05) and PPC of α1AR (r = 0.340; p < 0.05). Stroke volume, and total peripheral resistance correlated with extracellular MIF of β2AR (r = 0,283, and r = -0.221, respectively; all p < 0.05). Serum uric acid levels correlated with AR and α7nAChR expression. However, hsCRP did not correlate with AR and α7nAChR expression.
conclusionsadolescents with PH show significant alterations in the expression of adrenergic and cholinergic receptors in PBL. These changes correlate with hypertension mediated organ damage, hemodynamic and metabolic parameters typical of childhood hypertension.
