Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors.
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
An exciting and rapidly evolving area in vascular biology and atherosclerosis research over the past 3 years has been the establishment of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) expression in the vascular and inflammatory cells, and the emerging picture of the roles these ligand-activated nuclear receptor/transcription factors might play in vascular biology and atherosclerosis. Such work is all the more compelling given the ongoing clinical use of PPAR activators in patients. Thiazolidinediones (PPAR-g agonists) are used as insulin sensitizers in diabetic patients known to be at extraordinarily high risk for cardiovascular disease, whereas fibrates (PPAR-a agonists) are used to treat dyslipidemia, particularly in the case of high triglycerides and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
