Genome-Wide Characterization of a Highly Penetrant Form of Hyperlipoprotein(a)emia Associated With Genetically Elevated Cardiovascular Risk.
Article in Circulation. Genomic and precision medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 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
backgroundLp(a) (lipoprotein [a]) is a highly atherogenic lipoprotein strongly associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). Lp(a) concentrations are chiefly determined genetically. Investigation of large pedigrees with extreme Lp(a) using modern whole-genome approaches may unravel the genetic determinants underpinning this pathological phenotype.
methodsA large family characterized by high Lp(a) and increased CAD incidence was recruited by cascade screening. Plasma lipids, lipoproteins, and apolipoproteins concentrations, as well as the size of apo(a) isoforms, were determined enzymatically by high-resolution mass spectrometry and Western blot, respectively. Whole-exome sequencing was performed to search for rare defects in modifier genes. Genetic risk scores (GRS) for Lp(a) and CAD were calculated and their discriminative power was assessed.
resultsSeventeen individuals displayed extreme Lp(a) levels including 6 with CAD. Whole-exome sequencing showed no hint for genetic defects outside the
conclusionsHigh-Lp(a) phenotypes can be successfully captured using the Lp(a) GRS even among closely related family members. In hyper-Lp(a) individuals,
