Expression profile of apolipoproteins (APOE) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) genes in ischemic heart disease.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2026. 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
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, characterized by atherosclerosis and functional alterations in coronary circulation. Endothelin (ET-1), a potent vasoconstrictor, is implicated in coronary artery vasoconstriction, myocardial ischemia, and atherosclerosis through its mitogenic effects. The APOE is associated with increased LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and heightened IHD risk. This study aimed to investigate the expression profiles of APOE and ET-1 genes and their association with IHD. A total of 200 samples were recruited, categorized into disease (n = 100) and control (n = 100) groups. RNA was extracted from the blood samples and after quantification of RNA by Nanodrop. cDNA was synthesized followed by expression analysis of APOE and ET -1 genes by Real Time PCR, followed by statistical analysis. The APOE and IHD gene expression was increased in IHD group. Linear regression analysis indicated that BMI is an important factor in the expression of APOE. Odds ratio analysis further supported a significant association of these genes with an increased likelihood of ischemic heart disease.
