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
The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a novel biomarker of atherogenic dyslipidaemia (AD), but its relationship with cardiac adipose tissue depots is unknown. We aimed to assess the association of AD with cardiac adipose tissue parameters on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). We studied 161 patients who underwent CCTA between 2008 and 2011 (age 59.0 ± 14.0 years). AD was defined as triglyceride (TG) > 1.7 mmol/L and HDL < 1.0 mmol/L (n = 34). AIP was defined as the base 10 logarithmic ratio of TG to HDL. Plaque burden was assessed using the CT-Leaman score (CT-LeSc). We studied volume and attenuation of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT-v and EAT-a) and pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT-v and PCAT-a) on CCTA using semi-automated software. Patients with AD had higher PCAT-v (p = 0.042) and EAT-v (p = 0.041). AIP was associated with EAT-v (p = 0.006), type II diabetes (p = 0.009) and male sex (p < 0.001) and correlated with CT-LeSc (p = 0.040). On multivariable analysis, AIP was associated with EAT-v ≥ 52.3 cm
