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

impact statementVulnerable plaques are plaques which are susceptible to rupture or thrombosis and trigger a series of adverse events such as coronary disorders. CCL2 is a soluble basic protein belonging to the CC subfamily. Previous studies have been investigated on the correlation between inflammatory factors and clinical events, but there are few studies on the correlation between CCL2 and plaque characteristics. Our study found that the high expression of CCL2 is involved in multiple processes in the genesis and progression of coronary artery disease, and would be a potential clinical prognostic indicator. In addition, high expression of CCL2 may be related to gene pathways such as Nod-like receptor signaling pathway, suggesting that CCL2 is involved in the inflammatory response and immune process of coronary artery disease.
