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
aimsTo explore the association of remnant cholesterol (RC) and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) with composite adverse events in a large-scale prospective study.
methodsAll data were collected from the Asymptomatic Polyvascular Abnormalities Community study between 2010 and 2022. Serum cholesterol levels and Lp-PLA2 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The participants were categorized into four groups based on their RC and Lp-PLA2 levels: low-RC/Lp-PLA2-, high-RC/Lp-PLA2-, low-RC/Lp-PLA2+ and high-RC/Lp-PLA2+. The composite endpoint was a combination of first-ever stroke, myocardial infarction or all-cause mortality. Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate associations of RC and Lp-PLA2 with composite adverse events.
resultsOf the 1864 eligible participants, the average age was 60.6 years, and 74.3% were male. Over a follow-up of 12 years, we identified 500 composite adverse events, including 210 major adverse cardiovascular events and 342 all-cause deaths. When compared with the group of low-RC/Lp-PLA2-, the hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals in the group of high-RC/Lp-PLA2+ for stroke, myocardial infarction, major adverse cardiovascular event, all-cause death and composite endpoints were 1.37 (0.87-2.16), 0.72 (0.28-1.82), 1.29 (0.85-1.95), 1.61 (1.10-2.38) and 1.43 (1.07-1.91), respectively. A significant interaction between RC and Lp-PLA2 status has been found for all-cause death and composite endpoint (p for interaction <0.05). In addition, joint association of RC and Lp-PLA2 with all-cause death was modified by sex and age of <60 versus ≥60 years (p for interaction: 0.035 and 0.01, respectively).
conclusionsElevated RC and Lp-PLA2 levels were associated with an increased risk of composite adverse events, with these associations significantly influenced by sex and age. Our study highlights the synergistic effect of RC and Lp-PLA2 on the composite adverse events.
