Calcium-dependent low renin syndrome in a diabetic patient with prostaglandin deficiency.
Article in Journal of endocrinological investigation, 1998. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Calcium and prostaglandin are supposed to play a critical role in the renin-angiotensin aldosterone system. Calcium has been described as an inhibitory second messenger for renin exocytosis whereas vasodilatory prostaglandins, such as PGE2, are known to stimulate the production of renin. These factors are probably interrelated since calcium also enhances urinary prostaglandin release. We report the case of a 52 year-old diabetic patient treated with insulin injections with intestinal malabsorption leading to chronic hyperkalemia and hypocalcemia in whom a low renin syndrome and low levels of urinary prostaglandins were observed. The correction of the hypocalcemia was able to improve plasma renin as well as urinary prostaglandin levels. This observation suggests a prominent role played by calcium on the in vivo regulation of renin and prostaglandin release. These results illustrate the closed loop between plasma calcium level, urinary prostaglandins production and renin release.
