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

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) promotes the degradation of low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). Anti-PCSK9 agents have been approved for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. We recently discovered a series of small-molecule PCSK9 modulators that contains a relatively small pharmacophore of 2,3'-diindolylmethane with molecular weights around only 250. These molecules can significantly lower the amount of PCSK9 protein in a cell-based phenotypic assay. Our SAR studies yielded compound 16 with a IC
