The Evolving Role of Coronary Artery Imaging in Assessing Cardiovascular Risk from Lipoprotein(a).
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 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
purpose of reviewSummarize current literature on the use of coronary artery imaging modalities in examining the atherosclerotic and arterial inflammatory manifestations of elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]. Evaluate the evolving role of coronary imaging in risk stratification and treatment decisions. RECENT
findingsWhile Lp(a) and calcium scoring (CAC) are independently associated with cardiovascular risk, Lp(a) is associated with CAC incidence and progression. Lp(a) is associated with greater plaque prevalence, multivessel disease, and high-risk morphologies, while also being linked to accelerated progression of mixed and lipid-rich plaque by coronary CT angiography. Intravascular imaging modalities further show associations between Lp(a) and thin-cap fibroatheroma, lipid-rich plaque, percent atheroma volume, and plaque progression. Lp(a) is associated with non-calcified or mixed coronary plaque morphology and progression, as well as increased risk of high-risk plaque features. While additional research is needed, current literature suggests that coronary imaging may be an important tool in cardiovascular risk stratification for individuals with elevated Lp(a).
