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

Atherosclerosis, the underlying pathophysiological basis of cardiovascular disease, has been recognized as a lipid-driven chronic inflammatory disease. Sterol carrier protein 2 (SCP-2) is a 13-kDa non-specific lipid-transfer protein expressed by various tissues and cells, such as liver, heart, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and macrophages. SCP-2 has an extensive role in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Recently, SCP-2 was reported to promote the development of atherosclerosis by regulating lipid metabolism and peroxidation, endocannabinoid metabolism, vascular inflammation, and fatty acid metabolism. In this review, we summarized the recent advances regarding the role of SCP-2 in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and tried to provide a rationale for future investigation and a better understanding of the biological functions of SCP-2 in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
