The Effect of Intensive Dietary Intervention on the Level of RANTES and CXCL4 Chemokines in Patients with Non-Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease: A Randomised Study.
Article in Biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundInflammation is the key pathophysiological mechanism of the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. The study objective was to assess the effects of a dietary intervention based on the model of the dietary approaches to stop hypertension (DASH) diet on the levels of chemokines RANTES and CXCL4 in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease.
methodsAs part of Dietary Intervention to Stop Coronary Atherosclerosis in Computed Tomography (DISCO-CT) study, patients were randomised to an intervention group (
resultsIn the DASH group, the RANTES level insignificantly reduced from 42.70 ± 21.1 ng/mL to 38.09 ± 18.5 ng/mL (
conclusionsA 12-month-long intensive dietary intervention based on DASH diet guidelines as an addition to optimal pharmacotherapy causes changes in the levels of chemokines CXCL4 and RANTES and their mutual relationship in comparison to conventional treatment.
