Emerging role of intravascular ultrasound in the assessment of experimental anti-atherosclerotic therapies.
Review in Current medicinal chemistry, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03771053 (Intravascular Ultrasound Evaluation of the Intervention Effect of Simvastatin Combined With Ezetimibe on Coronary Borderline Lesion in Patients With Stable Angina Pectoris and Diabetes Mellitus Compared With Simvastatin Alone), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging within the coronary arteries has emerged as the gold standard for the quantitation of the extent of atherosclerosis plaque. Studies that have utilized IVUS have enhanced our understanding of the in vivo natural history of atherogenesis. As IVUS can be performed within the same coronary artery at different time points it has become an attractive tool for the assessment of the effect of experimental anti-atherosclerotic strategies on plaque burden. This review will review the evolution of IVUS as an imaging modality and highlight its use to assess a number of interventions that are directed at both modification of existing risk factors and novel targets that are thought to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of atheroma formation.
