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.

2 · The registry

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

Lipid-lowering therapy is used very commonly nowadays not only for the optimization of the lipid profile but also to reduce cardiovascular risk. However, some studies have linked the use of certain lipid-lowering agents with an increased risk for impaired glycemic control and new-onset diabetes mellitus, a condition well established as an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. On the other hand, some other lipid-lowering agents have been shown to have a beneficial effect on glucose metabolism. Profound knowledge of these differences would enable the clinician to choose the right lipid-lowering medication for each individual patient, so that the benefits would outweigh the risk of side effects. This review aims to present and discuss the clinical and scientific data pertaining to the impact of lipid-lowering therapy on glycemic control and the risk for new-onset diabetes mellitus.
