Treatment of low HDL-C subjects with the CETP modulator dalcetrapib increases plasma campesterol only in those without ABCA1 and/or ApoA1 mutations.
Trial report in Lipids, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of dalcetrapib treatment on phytosterol levels in patients with familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH) or familial hypoalphalipoproteinemia (FHA) due to mutations in apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) or ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1). Patients (n = 40) with FCH or FHA received dalcetrapib 600 mg or placebo in this 4-week, double-blind, crossover study. Lipids, apolipoproteins, cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity and mass, and phytosterols were assessed. Dalcetrapib increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and ApoA1 levels to a similar extent in FHA (+22.8, +13.9%) and FCH (+18.4, +12.1%), both p < 0.001 vs. placebo. Changes in CETP activity and mass were comparable for FHA (-31.5, +120.9%) and FCH (-26.6, +111.9%), both p < 0.0001 vs. placebo. Campesterol and lathosterol were unchanged in FHA (+3.8, +3.0%), but only campesterol was markedly increased in FCH (+25.0%, p < 0.0001 vs. placebo). Campesterol increased with dalcetrapib treatment in FCH but not in FHA, despite comparable HDL-C and ApoA1 increases, suggesting that ApoA1 and/or ABCA1 is essential for HDL lipidation by enterocytes in humans.
