CCL17 as an Inflammatory Biomarker Enhances Cardiovascular Risk Stratification: a Prospective Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular translational research, 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
Inflammation is a key contributor to cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet existing risk models such as Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk in China (China-PAR) and Pooled Cohort Equations (PCE) inadequately identify individuals at intermediate risk. We investigated whether incorporating the inflammatory chemokine CCL17 could improve cardiovascular risk prediction. In two prospective cohorts-the Shunyi Cohort (n = 706, China) and the UK Biobank (n = 36,097, UK)-baseline CCL17 levels were quantified, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) were tracked over follow-up. Elevated CCL17 levels were independently associated with increased risk of MACEs. Integrating CCL17 into existing models significantly improved discrimination and reclassification, particularly among intermediate-risk individuals (e.g., NRI: 15.1% in Shunyi; 3.0% in UK Biobank). This biomarker-based refinement enabled earlier identification of clinically significant high-risk individuals. These findings suggest that CCL17 is a promising translational biomarker that may enhance precision prevention by augmenting current cardiovascular risk assessment strategies.
