Impact of Severe Hypercholesterolemia on Cardiovascular Risk in Individuals With or Without Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Journal of lipid and atherosclerosis, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: The aim of the current study was to investigate whether the impact of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels on cardiovascular risk is different between individuals with severe hypercholesterolemia and diabetes mellitus (DM) and those without DM. Methods: This study used the database of a National Health Insurance Service cohort of Korea. Among individuals who underwent health check-up, 2,261,332 were included and categorized into 3 groups with severe hypercholesterolemia, >260, 225-259, and 190-224 mg/dL groups, and a control group (<160 mg/dL). Risks of composite events (myocardial infarction [MI], coronary revascularization, and ischemic stroke) and total mortality were analyzed, according to the presence of DM. Results: Of the study population, 5.2% had DM. During median follow-up of 6.1 years, the rates of composite events (/1,000 person-year) in non-DM and DM subjects were up to 5.66 and 8.92, respectively. Adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) of the composite events ranged up to 3.11 and 1.44 in non-DM and DM groups, respectively ( Conclusion: Although individuals with severe hypercholesterolemia had high cardiovascular risk when DM was present, the impact of LDL-C on the risk was attenuated in this population.
