Reevaluating elevated HDL cholesterol levels in healthy older persons as a risk factor for various disease states.
Article in American journal of clinical and experimental immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
This article reviews the role of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in the elderly population, questioning the established view that advocates the ubiquitous health benefits of HDL cholesterol. High levels of HDL-C have been found to be associated with an increased risk of debilitating fractures, dementia, and cardiovascular disease, predominantly affecting older men, through the use of large population-based studies such as the ASPREE trial and the UK Biobank. Possible mechanisms are closely linked to cholesterol crystallization and altered HDL particle function. These findings call for a refinement of the understanding of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), which implies adjustments to clinical guidelines and risk assessment strategies in older populations.
