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

In 2023 there are still even 75% of patients over the target of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and hypercholesterolemia is the most common and the worst monitored cardiovascular risk factor. How it is possible, considering the knowledge we have on the role of cholesterol in the process of atherosclerosis, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and its complications, on the methods of lipid disorders diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. Nowadays, almost 4 million deaths per year are attributed to LDL-C, and even 2/3 of all CVD deaths to ASCVD, therefore hypothetically we should easily prevent few to several million of deaths with early diagnosis, and early and intensive non-pharmacological and pharmacological therapies. Moreover, lipidology is now, besides oncology, the area with the highest number of new and ongoing trials with new effective and safe medications that have already appeared and will soon be available. Therefore, we have no doubt that year 2023 should be called the year of new and prospective lipid lowering therapies (LLTs). In this
