Statins as an Adjunctive Antithrombotic Agent in Thrombotic Antiphospholipid Syndrome: Mechanisms and Clinical Implications.
Review in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
The thrombotic physiopathology of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is complex, heterogeneous, and dynamic. While venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the most common initial presentation, arterial thrombotic events (ATE) become more frequent in advanced stages and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Despite the use of oral anticoagulants (OACs), thrombotic APS remains associated with a high risk of recurrent thrombosis. Given their potential antithrombotic effects capable of reducing the risk of both VTE and ATE, statins have been proposed as an adjunctive therapy to OACs for patients with APS and recurrent thrombosis. However, this recommendation is primarily based on studies not specifically conducted in APS populations, with only preclinical data or evidence from retrospective observational studies available from APS patients cohorts. For these reasons, this narrative review aims to synthesise the studies evaluating the potential antithrombotic effects of statins in patients with APS, highlighting the progress made and identifying areas for future research.
