Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Atherosclerosis is a chronic disease associated with accumulation of lipids in lesions along blood vessels, leading to the occlusion of blood flow. Much of the focus has been on the role of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and of oxidatively modified LDL, in the initiation and progression of this disease. LDL is in fact a metabolic end-product of the triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (ie, very-low density lipoproteins). Over the years, univariate analyses have implicated triglycerides as a contributor in atherosclerosis. However, depending on the studies, the significance of this relationship is either reduced or nullified when other co-variates are taken into account. This review summarizes more recent data that support the role of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in the atherosclerotic process, both in the fasted as well as in the postprandial state.
