Dyslipidaemia: cardiovascular prevention--end of the road for niacin?
Article in Nature reviews. Endocrinology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The recently published HPS2–THRIVE study has shown that the addition of extended release niacin to statin therapy in patients with well-controlled levels of LDL cholesterol does not reduce the risk of cardiovascular events and might even increase harm. Consequently, the use of niacin to increase levels of HDL cholesterol is not recommended.
