Stratification in Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia: Imaging, Biomarkers, and Genetic Testing.
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 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
purpose of reviewHeterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) is the most common monogenic autosomal dominant disorder. However, the condition is often underdiagnosed and undertreated. The objective of this review is to provide an update on the risk stratification in patients with HeFH, incorporating new cardiovascular imaging techniques, various biomarkers, and genetic studies. RECENT
findingsThe diagnosis of HeFH places patients in a high cardiovascular risk category due to the increased incidence of premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. However, the level of risk varies significantly among different individuals with HeFH. Achieving an optimal stratification of cardiovascular risk is crucial for establishing appropriate and accurate treatment and management strategies. Different new tools such as risk scores have emerged in recent years, aiding physicians in assessing the risk stratification for HeFH using imaging, biomarkers, and genetics. This review emphasizes that not all patients with HeFH face the same cardiovascular risk. By utilizing different assessment tools, we can identify those who require more intensive monitoring, follow-up, and treatment.
