Clinical significance of lipoprotein(a) as a residual risk factor for atherosclerotic coronary plaque progression in statin-treated patients with coronary artery disease.
Observational study in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Limited evidence exists on the role of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] in the progression of atherosclerotic coronary plaques as assessed by intravascular imaging modality, particularly under low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering therapy. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of Lp(a) as a residual risk factor for coronary plaque progression, using serial intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in statin-treated patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This observational cohort study included statin-treated patients from two clinical prospective trials (the ENTERPRISE trial and Extended-ESTABLISH trial) in which coronary plaques were assessed using serial grayscale IVUS at baseline and at 6-12 months follow-up. The primary endpoints were defined as absolute changes in normalized total atheroma volume (TAV
