1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) facilitates movement of esterified cholesterol between high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. By virtue of their ability to raise HDL cholesterol and lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, pharmacological inhibitors of CETP have received considerable attention as potential new agents in cardiovascular prevention. While early studies of CETP inhibitors have demonstrated a lack of clinical efficacy and potential toxicity, development of the potent CETP inhibitor, anacetrapib, has moved forward, with emerging evidence suggesting a role in reducing cardiovascular events. The experience with anacetrapib and its potential for use in clinical practice are reviewed here.
