Colchicine in the Management of Acute and Chronic Coronary Artery Disease.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
purpose of reviewInflammation is involved in the initiation, progression, and destabilization of atherosclerosis. Anti-inflammatory strategies aimed at reducing residual cardiovascular (CV) risk have gained increasing interest in addition to the traditional management of risk factors. Colchicine is a potent anti-inflammatory therapy that affects the inflammasome and other targets. We will herein review the most recent evidence regarding the usefulness of colchicine in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). RECENT
findingsColchicine has recently been repurposed from its traditional use to a number of CV indications. The landmark COLCOT and LoDoCo2 trials have demonstrated that long-term use of colchicine was associated with a reduced rate of CV events in both acute and chronic presentations of CAD, with an overall good safety profile. Colchicine is emerging as a valuable, safe, and cost-effective therapy in addition to standard of care for the prevention of atherothrombotic events in CAD.
