The ASAP study: association of atherosclerosis with pathobiology in a caucasian cohort-a study of 3400 autopsy reports.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cardiovascular plaques result from atherosclerosis. Autopsy investigations of unnatural deaths provide atherosclerosis research. A Central European cohort was studied in a cross-sectional study to determine the origin of atherosclerosis and the link between arterial status and pathobiological variables. This study incorporated 3400 autopsy reports (n = 2318 men; aged 0─96 years; 1928─2010) of persons who died by unnatural causes (suicide, homicide, accident). Age, sex, BMI, abdominal fat thickness, and arterial status of six vascular areas were gathered. The arterial state was divided into five subgroups according to its status. BMI declined from 22.82 kg/m2 in 1931 to 18.43 kg/m
