Longitudinal associations between lymphocyte count and LDL cholesterol in a health screening population.
Article in Journal of clinical & translational endocrinology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundLongitudinal associations between leukocyte subtype counts and LDL cholesterol have not been reported. METHODS AND
resultsThis is a retrospective observational study in a health screening population. Spearman's correlation coefficients were calculated between leukocyte subtype counts and LDL cholesterol levels at baseline and after four years. Using Cox regression models, hazard ratios (HRs) of hyper-LDL cholesterolemia for leukocyte subtype counts during four years of follow-up were calculated adjusted for age, sex, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and other confounders. Spearman's correlation coefficients (
conclusionsLymphocyte count and LDL cholesterol were longitudinally positively correlated and lymphocyte count was associated with incidence of hyper-LDL cholesterolemia independently of hs-CRP in a health screening population.
