Obesity, aldosterone excess, and mineralocorticoid receptor activation: Parallel or intersected circumstances?
Review in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 obesity pandemic, with its associated comorbidities of hypertension and diabetes, constitutes a global public health issue. Importantly, there is an increasing prevalence of aldosterone excess related to obesity and resultant poor health outcomes. Nevertheless, the association between aldosterone and obesity still needs to be clarified. In this review, the authors discuss the role of white adipose tissue in linking obesity, aldosterone excess, and hypertension. The consequences of aldosterone excess in obesity are presented as genomic, non-genomic, and non-epithelial effects. Moreover, the authors emphasize the value of interference with aldosterone pathophysiology (as with mineralocorticoid antagonists) in obesity, thus reducing the adverse clinical impact of aldosterone in myocardial infarction, heart failure, kidney dysfunction, and associated mortality.
