Emerging pharmacological strategies in lipoprotein(a) reduction.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 3 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 3 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.

Abstract
Background: Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is an low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-like particle whose elevation is considered a causal risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and calcific aortic valve stenosis. Currently, there are no published clinical trials showing whether Lp(a) lowering in conjunction with optimal LDL cholesterol control reduces ASCVD risk. Methods: Clinicaltrials.gov, an online database for clinical research studies, was used to identify ongoing clinical trials studying targeted Lp(a) lowering pharmacotherapy as of May 2025. Twelve clinical studies met the criteria and were included in this summary. Results: The three large, multicenter phase 3 outcome trials evaluating clinical cardiovascular disease endpoints of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) are Lp(a)HORIZON (NCT04023552), OCEAN(a) (NCT05581303), and ACCLAIM-Lpa(a) (NCT06292013), which investigate pelacarsen, olpasiran, and lepodisiran, respectively. Other phase 2 and phase 3 trials are also under way. Conclusion: Results from upcoming trials will inform us whether Lp(a) reductions translate to improved cardiovascular clinical outcomes.
