Effect of ApoE4 Genotype on the Association Between Metabolic Phenotype and Subclinical Atherosclerosis in Postmenopausal Women.
Trial report in The American journal of cardiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Metabolic profile and ApoE4 genotype have effects on coronary heart disease. We examined the interaction between these factors on subclinical atherosclerosis in postmenopausal women from the Early versus Late Intervention Trial with Estradiol (n = 497). Based on nine metabolic biomarkers (fasting blood glucose, insulin sensitivity, ketones, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, hemoglobin A1c, and blood pressure), K-means clustering categorized women into three distinct phenotypes: healthy, high blood pressure, and poor metabolic. ApoE4 genotype was classified as either ApoE4+ or ApoE4-. General linear models tested whether the cross-sectional association between metabolic phenotypes and common carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) differed by ApoE4 genotype. Mixed effects linear models evaluated the modifying role of ApoE4 genotype on the association of metabolic phenotype with CIMT progression over a median follow-up of 4.8 years. In cross-sectional analysis, ApoE4+ women with poor metabolic phenotype had the highest CIMT compared with all other groups. In ApoE4- women, CIMT was significantly lower in those classified as healthy compared with high blood pressure phenotype (p = 0.004). In ApoE4+ women, CIMT was significantly higher in those with poor metabolic phenotype compared with healthy (p = 0.0003) and high blood pressure (p = 0.001) phenotypes. These results indicate that metabolic phenotype had a negative effect on CIMT in women with ApoE4+ but not ApoE4- (interaction p = 0.001). These effects were not observed on CIMT progression in longitudinal analysis. In conclusion, ApoE4+ women are more likely to have higher levels of subclinical atherosclerosis if their metabolic phenotype is poor compared with ApoE4+ women without poor metabolic profile and ApoE4- women.
