Recent Update on PCSK9 and Platelet Activation Experimental Research Methods: In Vitro and In Vivo Studies.
Review in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a crucial factor in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. PCSK9 has been demonstrated to modify LDL plasma levels and increase platelet activation, which promotes atherosclerosis, a defining feature of nearly all cardiovascular diseases. Platelet activation has been shown to promote and maintain the response to atherosclerosis development, from beginning to progression and exacerbation, which can lead to advanced cardiovascular events including myocardial infarction (MI) or death. Research on PCSK9 and platelet activation is currently underway with the main goal of reducing the risk of advanced cardiovascular events by preventing or slowing down atherosclerosis progression. Both in vitro and in vivo studies have been used to explore PCSK9 functions to develop new drugs targeting PCSK9. Finding the most suitable study models that represent the pathological and physiological systems found in humans is very important to achieving the goal. This review aimed to present a current and comprehensive overview of the experimental models that have been used to investigate the role of PCSK9 in platelet activation-induced atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases.
