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 metabolic syndrome is an important public health concern that predisposes individuals to the development of cardiovascular disease and/or Type 2 diabetes. The fructose-fed rat is an animal model of acquired systolic hypertension that displays numerous features of the metabolic syndrome. This animal model is used to study the relationship between insulin resistance/compensatory hyperinsulinemia and the development of hypertension. Several mechanisms have been proposed to mediate the link between insulin resistance and hypertension. In this review, we have addressed the role of sympathetic nervous system overactivation, increased production of vasoconstrictors, such as endothelin-1 and angiotensin II, and prostanoids in the development of hypertension in fructose-fed rats. The roles of nitric oxide, impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation and sex hormones in the pathogenesis of the fructose-fed induced hypertensive rats have also been highlighted. More recently, increased formation of reactive oxygen species and elevated levels of uric acid have been reported to contribute to fructose-induced hypertension.
