New developments in the treatment of low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Reduced levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol represent an important risk factor for the development and progression of coronary artery disease. In recent years, clinical outcome studies have verified that statin therapy may reduce the risk of initial or recurrent cardiovascular events in subjects with elevated or "normal" cholesterol levels. Subgroup analysis has also revealed that patients with low HDL benefit from this therapy. Two recently presented outcome trials using fibrate therapy also demonstrated a potential role for these medications in subjects with low HDL. The use of various HDL raising agents, singly or in combination on arteriographic progression and their potential mechanisms of action are reviewed. The latter may be an important consideration in the treatment of high-risk patients with low HDL.
