Article in Current vascular pharmacology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03377335 (Effect of Dapagliflozin on Cardio-Metabolic Risk Factors in Patients With Type-2 Diabetes), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

Vascular calcification, both in the coronary and in the peripheral arteries, is associated with increased cardiovascular (CV) risk. However, agents that prevent vascular calcification (e.g. estrogens or calcimimetic agents) might have neutral or detrimental effects on CV events. Moreover, statins and antihypertensive agents do not appear to modify vascular calcification, despite their established benefits on CV disease prevention. On the other hand, recent data suggest that microRNAs play a role in the regulation of vascular calcification. It is therefore possible that modulation of the expression of microRNAs might represent a useful strategy for preventing or delaying the progression of this process.
