1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

As blood cholesterol increases, it accumulates in the intima of blood vessels, elevating the risk of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. Drugs that inhibit enzymes essential for cholesterol synthesis are effective in improving blood cholesterol levels. Statins are used to treat hypercholesterolemia as they inhibit 3-hydroxyl-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase (HMGR), the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis. Statins are known to exert their effects by translocating to the liver, where they are taken up by the organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1). Therefore, we hypothesized that a compound with high HMGR inhibitory activity and high affinity for OATP1B1 would be an excellent new therapeutic agent for hypercholesterolemia with increased liver selectivity and fewer side effects. In this study, we developed two models for predicting HMGR inhibitory activity and OATP1B1 affinity to propose the chemical structure of a new therapeutic agent for hypercholesterolemia with both high inhibitory activity and high liver selectivity. HMGR inhibitory activity and OATP1B1 affinity prediction models were constructed with high prediction accuracy for the test data:
