The impact of baseline calcified plaque volume on coronary rapid plaque progression by serial coronary computed tomography angiography in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesPatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are susceptible to coronary artery disease (CAD), and coronary outcomes in these patients are heterogeneous. However, the impact of coronary plaque compositions on rapid plaque progression (RPP) in patients with T2DM has rarely been reported. This study aimed to investigate the association of coronary plaque compositions with rapid lesion volume progression in patients with T2DM. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 159 subjects (aged 62.51 ± 10.3 years, 68.6% were male) who underwent serial coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) with type 2 diabetic status were enrolled. Annual change of plaque volume (PV) (mm
resultsThe median inter-scan period was 2.09 (range 1.41-3.33) years. The overall incidence of RPP was 61.0%. The calcified plaque volume decreased significantly in the RPP group as compared to the no RPP group. The risk of RPP (odds ratio [OR] 0.39; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.17-0.88;
conclusionThe baseline calcified plaque volume is an independent protective factor for the rapid progression of coronary atherosclerosis in patients with T2DM.
