Lipophilic calcium antagonists in antiatherosclerotic therapy.
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2000. 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
Two key events in atherosclerotic plaque formation are the deposition of lipids in cells of the vascular wall, and migration and proliferation of arterial smooth muscle cells from the tunica intima toward the media. It has been shown that various calcium-channel antagonists may delay plaque formation in animal models. Among these, the new and highly lipophilic calcium antagonists, such as lacidipine and lercanidipine, display the most promising antiatherosclerotic activities. This paper will review and discuss these beneficial effects.
