Genetic risk score for coronary artery calcification and its predictive ability for coronary artery disease.
Article in American journal of preventive cardiology, 2024. 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
Aim: The modest added predictive value of the existing genetic risk scores (GRSs) for coronary artery disease (CAD) could be partly due to missing genetic components, hidden in the genetic architecture of intermediate phenotypes such as coronary artery calcification (CAC). In this study, we investigated the predictive ability of CAC GRS for CAD. Materials and methods: We investigated the association of CAC GRSs with CAD and coronary calcification among the participants in the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health study (LURIC) ( Results: CAC GRS was significantly associated with CAD in LURIC (OR=1.41, 95 % CI [1.28-1.55]), TVS (OR=1.79, 95 % CI [1.05-3.21]) as well as in TSDS (OR=4.20, 95 % CI [1.74-10.52]). CAC GRS showed strong association with calcification areas in left (OR=1.78, 95 % CI [1.16-2.74]) and right (OR=1.71, 95 % CI [1.98-2.67]) coronary arteries. There was statistically significant added predictive value of the CAC GRS for CAD over the used traditional CVD risk factors (AUC 0.734 vs 0.717, p-value = 0.02). Furthermore, CAC GRS improved the prediction accuracy for CAD when combined with metaGRS. Conclusions: This study showed that CAC GRS is a new risk marker for CAD in three European cohorts, with added predictive value over the traditional CVD risk factors.
