The factors affecting lipid profile in adult patients with Mucopolysaccharidosis.
Article in Molecular genetics and metabolism reports, 2017. 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
backgroundMucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of rare inherited disorders characterized by abnormal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) within the myocytes and coronary arteries. Little is known about hyperlipidaemia as a potential cardiovascular risk factor in these patients. Baseline cholesterol data in adults are scarce. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse factors affecting lipid profile in different types of MPSs to determine if abnormalities in lipid profile contribute to the overall risk of cardiovascular disease.
methodsAdult patients (above the age of 16) with MPS type I, II, III, IV and VI attending clinics in two Inherited Metabolic Disorders centres were included. Their lipid profile, lipoprotein (a), HbA1c, Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT), BMI and treatment type were extracted. Analysis included descriptive statistics and Student
resultsEighty two patients with five MPS types (I, II, III, IV and VI) were included in the study; 29 were females (35%) and 53 were males (65%). BMI above 25 kg/m
conclusionsMPS disorders are not associated with significant hypercholesterolaemia or diabetes mellitus despite increased BMI. Total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol were within the targets for primary prevention for non-MPS population. Lipoprotein (a) is not a useful marker of cardiovascular disease in a small group of adult MPS IV patients irrespectively of treatment option. Whether long-term cardiovascular risk is dependent on lipid profile, diabetes, obesity or GAGs deposition within the organ system remains unanswered.
