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
backgroundFamilial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetically inherited disorder caused by monogenic mutations or polygenic deleterious variants. Patients with FH innate with significantly elevated risks for coronary heart disease (CHD). FH prevalence based on genetic testing in Chinese CHD patients is missing. Whether classical index of coronary atherosclerosis severity can be used as indicators of FH needs to be explored. To investigate the FH prevalence in Chinese CHD patients and the association of SYNTAX I score with FH genotype.
methodsThe monogenic and polygenic FH related genes were genotyped in 400 consecutively enrolled CHD patients. The clinical characteristics and SYNTAX I scores were analyzed in a retrospective nested case-control study.
resultsThe prevalence of genetically confirmed FH in our CHD cohort was 8.75%. The cLDL-C level, SYNTAX I scores and incidences of triple vessel lesions in FH patients were significantly higher, while cLDL-C and SYNTAX I scores were independent risk factors for FH. Furthermore, cLDL-C levels of polygenic FH were significantly lower than monogenic FH, while their severity of coronary atherosclerosis was comparable.
conclusionsOur study revealed that the SYNTAX I score was an independent risk factor for FH. Besides, polygenic origin of FH should be taken into consideration for CHD patients suspected of FH.
