Acute effect of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor on oxidized low-density lipoprotein and lipid profile in patients at cardiovascular risk.

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
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors are a new class of potent lipid-lowering drugs. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is the key pathogenic factor leading to atherosclerosis. However, its effect on ox-LDL levels has not been clinically reported. The clinical data of 290 very high-risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) patients diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2022 to October 2022 were collected retrospectively. According to whether evolocumab (a PCSK9 inhibitor) was used after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), they were divided into evolocumab group (153 cases) and statin monotherapy group (137 cases). At hospital admission, ox-LDL, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoproteinA1 (apoA1), apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB), lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], and high-sensitivity reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were collected and used as baseline data. After two weeks of treatment, ox-LDL in the evolocumab group and statin monotherapy group were significantly lower than those before treatment (
