A dual blocker of endothelin A/B receptors mitigates hypertension but not renal dysfunction in a rat model of chronic kidney disease and sleep apnea.
Article in American journal of physiology. Renal physiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Obstructive sleep apnea is characterized by recurrent episodes of pharyngeal collapse during sleep, resulting in intermittent hypoxia (IH), and is associated with a high incidence of hypertension and accelerated renal failure. In rodents, endothelin (ET)-1 contributes to IH-induced hypertension, and ET-1 levels inversely correlate with glomerular filtration rate in patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). Therefore, we hypothesized that a dual ET receptor antagonist, macitentan (Actelion Pharmaceuticals), will attenuate and reverse hypertension and renal dysfunction in a rat model of combined IH and CKD. Male Sprague-Dawley rats received one of three diets (control, 0.2% adenine, and 0.2% adenine + 30 mg·kg
