Screening for and management of elevated Lp(a).
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2013. 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
While lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) has long been an intriguing subject for basic researchers and clinicians alike, it is only recently that this unique cardiovascular risk factor has begun to be broadly utilized as part of risk prediction. This has dovetailed with the recognition, from genetic studies, that Lp(a) is indeed causal for atherothrombotic disease rather than being merely a marker. Yet, significant questions remain the subject of ongoing study including: what patients groups benefit the most from determination of plasma Lp(a) concentrations; how can elevated plasma Lp(a) concentrations be most effectively managed; does reduction in plasma Lp(a) concentrations reduce risk for atherothrombotic events; and what is the molecular mechanism or mechanisms underlying the risk attributed to elevated Lp(a)? This review summarizes recent progress in genetic studies, basic laboratory research, and epidemiology with a focus on how Lp(a) might be incorporated into clinical practice.
