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

Future innovative therapies targeting cardiovascular disease (CVD) have the potential to improve health outcomes and to contain rising healthcare costs. Unsustainable increases in the size, cost and duration of clinical trial programs necessary for regulatory approval, however, threaten the entire innovation enterprise. Rising costs for clinical trials are due in large part to increasing demands for hard cardiovascular clinical endpoints as measures of therapeutic efficacy. The development and validation of predictive and surrogate biomarkers, as laboratory or other objective measures predictive or reflective of clinical endpoints, are an important part of the solution to this challenge. This review will discuss insights applicable to CVD derived from the use of predictive biomarkers in oncologic drug development, the evolving role of high density lipoprotein (HDL) in CVD drug development and the impact biomarkers and surrogates have on the continued investment from multiple societal sources critical for innovative CVD drug discovery and development.
