Influence of rosuvastatin dose on total fatty acids and free fatty acids in plasma: Correlations with lipids involved in cholesterol homeostasis.
Trial report in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This study investigates for the first time the influence of four doses of rosuvastatin on total fatty acids (TFA) and free fatty acids (FFA) in human plasma and correlates their changes in concentration with changes in the concentration of other lipids involved in cholesterol homeostasis.This study was a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, crossover experiment. The study used a single group of 16 men and consisted of 5 treatment periods lasting 4 weeks each with placebo and 4 doses of rosuvastatin (5, 10, 20, and 40 mg). Each subject changed 5 medical treatments and received in each new treatment different tablets of rosuvastatin or placebo compared to those taken in previous treatments, in a random order. Between treatment periods there was a wash-out period of 2 weeks, without treatment.Changes in TFA and FFA were significant compared to placebo and between different doses of rosuvastatin. We found a continuous logarithmic decrease in levels of TFA, FFA, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, total cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids, and apolipoprotein B-100, and a continuous increase in levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-1 by increases the dose of rosuvastatin. Analysis of the correlation of TFA and FFA with the main lipids and lipoproteins in cholesterol homeostasis indicated a linear regression with high correlation coefficients and all P-values were less than .05 level.The concentrations of TFA and FFA are significantly influenced by the dose of rosuvastatin. They are strongly correlated with those of other lipids and lipoproteins involved in cholesterol homeostasis. The mechanisms of cholesterol homeostasis regulation are involved in changing the concentrations of TFA and FFA.
