Mapping genes controlling hematocrit in the spontaneously hypertensive rat.
Article in Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The genes that determine the baseline hematocrit level in humans and experimental animals are unknown. The spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), the most widely used animal model of human essential hypertension, exhibits an increased hematocrit when compared with the normotensive Brown Norway (BN-Lx) strain (0.54 +/- 0.02 vs. 0.44 +/- 0.02, p < 0.01). Distribution of hematocrit values among recombinant inbred (RI) strains derived from SHR and BN-Lx progenitors was continuous, which suggests a polygenic mode of inheritance. The narrow heritability of the hematocrit was estimated to be 0.32. The Eno2 marker on Chromosome (Chr) 4 showed the strongest association (p < 0.0001) with the observed variability of hematocrit among RI strains. The erythropoietin (Epo) gene, originally reported to be syntenic with Eno2, has been mapped to Chr 12, thus excluding it as a potential candidate gene for the increased hematocrit in the SHR. The current linkage data extend homologies between rat, mouse, and human chromosomes.
