Corticosteroids plus statins in patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia and hyperlipidemia: A multicenter retrospective cohort study.
Article in Therapeutic advances in hematology, 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
Background: Hyperlipidemia is prevalent in primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and may exacerbate bleeding severity and compromise treatment responses. Statins possess lipid-lowering and anti-inflammatory properties, but their influence on corticosteroid therapy in ITP patients with hyperlipidemia remains unclear. Objectives: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of initial corticosteroid therapy between patients with or without concomitant statin use for pre-existing hyperlipidemia in a cohort of newly diagnosed ITP patients. Design: A multicenter retrospective propensity score-matched study. Methods: Newly diagnosed ITP patients with pre-existing hyperlipidemia from 9 medical centers were analyzed. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on statin use (statin Results: After PSM, 104 patients (52 per group) were included. Baseline characteristics were comparable. Initial response rates were similar between the statin and non-statin groups (67.3% Conclusion: In this retrospective, propensity score-matched cohort, concomitant statin use was associated with higher 6-month SR rates and longer DOR in newly diagnosed ITP patients with pre-existing hyperlipidemia, without an apparent increase in serious adverse events. These observational findings warrant further validation in larger, prospective cohorts.
