Blood lipids and stroke: what more can we do besides reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol?
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Statin therapy has became the most important advance in stroke prevention since the introduction of aspirin and blood pressure-lowering therapies. Other lipid-modifying drugs have been less successful in reducing the incidence of stroke, but because of evidence for the use of triglyceride-lowering drugs and treatments that raise concentrations of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, further investigations are needed, particularly in patients with an atherogenic dyslipidemia profile (high triglycerides and low HDL cholesterol levels). Furthermore, beyond reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and possibly improving other lipids fractions in patients who are at high risk of stroke, the present review shoes that lipid-modifying drugs might have neuroprotective effects that should also be further explored.
