Circulating levels of C1q/TNF-α-related protein 6 (CTRP6) in coronary artery disease and its correlation with inflammatory markers.

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
Introduction: Circulating levels of C1q/TNF-α-related protein 6 (CTRP6) is an adipokine that is involved in regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammation, and insulin sensitivity. However, the exact role of CTRP6 in metabolic processes remains unclear due to conflicting findings. To address current gap, we aimed to investigate the serum levels of CTRP6 in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and its association with inflammatory cytokines. Method: In this case-control study, the serum levels of CTRP6, interlukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor- α (TNF-α), adiponectin, and fasting insulin were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits in a total of 176 participants, consisting of 88 CAD patients and 88 control subjects. Additionally, various anthropometric and biochemical measurements were measured and compared between cases and controls. Results: The present study found that serum levels of CTRP6 were significantly higher in the CAD group (561.3 ± 15.14) compared to the control group (429.3 ± 12.85, Conclusion: The findings of this study provide novel evidence that elevated serum levels of CTRP6 are significantly associated with an increased risk of developing CAD. Moreover, our results indicate a correlation between CTRP6 and various risk factors for atherosclerosis.
