A Case of Diabetes With a Rare Variant of Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia With an Atypical Phenotype.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A female patient from India was diagnosed with diabetes at 16 years of age and presented to a tertiary care diabetes clinic nine months later with hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia (hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia), while on insulin and statin therapy. The striking feature was the presence of lipodystrophy on both her upper and lower limbs. Both her elder brother and mother showed the presence of dyslipidemia and a normal phenotype on cascade screening. All three of them had a normal BMI. Managing the case was challenging due to the suboptimal response of dyslipidemia to the various combinations of medication. Genetic testing revealed a rare mutation in the LPL gene, causing familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH) with an unusual association of lipodystrophy. A similar heterozygous mutation was found in the mother. We report the first case of FCH with lipodystrophy from India and share the challenges encountered during the three years of follow-up.
