Influence of simvastatin on apoB-100 secretion in non-obese subjects with mild hypercholesterolemia.

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
Statins decrease apoB-100-containing lipoproteins by increasing their fractional catabolic rates through LDL receptor-mediated uptake. Their influence on hepatic secretion of these lipoproteins is controversial. The objective of the study was to examine the influence of simvastatin on the secretion of apoB-100-containing lipoproteins in fasting non-obese subjects. Turnover of apoB-100-containing lipoproteins was investigated using stable isotope-labeled tracers. Multicompartmental modeling was used to derive kinetic parameters. Eight male subjects (BMI 25 +/- 3 kg/m(2)) with mild hypercholesterolemia (LDL cholesterol 135 +/- 30 mg/dL) and normal triglycerides (111 +/- 44 mg/dL) were examined under no treatment (A), under chronic treatment with simvastatin 40 mg/day (B) and after an acute-on-chronic dosage of 80 mg simvastatin under chronic simvastatin treatment (C). Lipoprotein concentrations changed as expected under 40 mg/day simvastatin. Fractional catabolic rates increased in IDL and LDL but not in VLDL fractions versus control [VLDL +35% in B (n.s.) and +21% in C (n.s.); IDL +169% in B (P = 0.08) and +187% in C (P = 0.032); LDL +87% in B (P = 0.025) and +133% in C (P = 0.025)]. Chronic (B) and acute-on-chronic simvastatin treatment (C) did not affect lipoprotein production rates [VLDL -8 and -13%, IDL +47 and +38%, and LDL +19 and +30% in B and C, respectively (all comparisons n.s.)]. The data indicate that simvastatin does not influence the secretion of apoB-100-containing lipoproteins in non-obese subjects with near-normal LDL cholesterol concentrations.
