Usefulness of alirocumab and evolocumab for the treatment of patients with diabetic dyslipidemia.
Review in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
In 2015, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the anti-proprotein convertase subtilsin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) monoclonal antibodies, alirocumab and evolocumab, to treat patients with hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia. Since then, considerable attention has been paid to the use of these monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of diabetic dyslipidemia with a goal of reducing the risk for cardiovascular disease. Recently, consensus statements on the clinical use of PCSK9 inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, who are unable to achieve the goal of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (<70 mg/dL or <1.8 mmol/L), have been published by panels of experts in Greece, Europe (European Society of Cardiology and European Atherosclerosis Society Task Force), and the United States (American College of Cardiology Consensus Committee). On December 1, 2017, the FDA approved evolocumab to prevent heart attack, stroke, and coronary revascularization. In this article, we review recent advances concerning the pathophysiology of diabetic dyslipidemia, the physiology of PCSK9, the mechanisms of action of PCSK9 inhibitors, clinical trials examining PCSK9 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes, and perspectives of nonstatin therapy in the treatment of diabetic dyslipidemia.
