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

aimSampson et al. proposed a method to calculate small dense low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (sdLDL-C) concentrations using common lipid measurements, but its accuracy remains unresolved. We examined the difference between Sampson's equation and direct measurement in patients with diabetes.

methodssdLDL-C was measured directly by our established homogeneous assay and estimated by Sampson's equation in patients with diabetes (n=1542) and healthy control subjects (n=673). Large-buoyant (lb)LDL-C was estimated using triglycerides and LDL-C, and sdLDL-C was obtained by subtracting lbLDL-C from LDL-C. The effect of fasting/nonfasting state or lipid-lowering drug therapy on sdLDL-C values was also examined in 30 and 43 patients with diabetes, respectively.

resultsThe coefficient of determination (R

conclusionsThe correlation between Sampson's equation and direct measurements of sdLDL-C was reduced in patients with diabetes. Furthermore, the correlations with nonHDL-C and apolipoprotein B were even higher than those with direct sdLDL-C. The accuracy of Sampson's equation decreased with lower sdLDL-C concentrations and was also influenced by diet.
