Review in The American journal of the medical sciences, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06604117 (A Prospective, Open-label Study Evaluating the Effects of Probucol Combined with Statins on Atherosclerotic Characteristics and Prognosis in Patients with Ischemic Stroke), which is not on this map. Cited by 76 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol is important for cellular function, but in high concentrations, it can lead to atheroma formation. Over the past several decades, it has become abundantly evident that the oxidized form of LDL-cholesterol (ox-LDL) is more important in the genesis and progression of atherosclerosis than native unmodified LDL-cholesterol. Ox-LDL leads to endothelial dysfunction, an initial step in the formation of an atheroma. Ox-LDL acts via binding to a number of scavenger receptors (SR), such as SR-A1, SR-A2 and lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor (LOX-1). Ox-LDL can upregulate expression of its own receptor LOX-1 on endothelial cells and activate these cells. In addition, ox-LDL promotes the growth and migration of smooth muscle cells, monocytes/macrophages and fibroblasts. Ox-LDL also leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species that in physiologic concentrations combat invasion of the body by noxious agents, but when in excess, can lead to a state of oxidative stress. There is evidence for the presence of oxidative stress in a host of conditions such as atherosclerosis and aging. In this review, we discuss the role of oxidative stress, ox-LDL and LOX-1 in atherogenesis and the reasons why the traditional approaches to limit oxidant stress have not been successful.
