Triglyceride-rich lipoprotein, remnant cholesterol, and apolipoproteins CII, CIII, and E in patients with schizophrenia.

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
Patients with schizophrenia show a disproportionally increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Hypertriglyceridemia is prevalent in this population; however, how this relates to levels of remnant cholesterol, triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoprotein (TRL) particle size and composition, TG turnover, and apolipoprotein (apo) and angiopoietin-like protein (ANGPTL) concentrations is unknown. Fasting levels of cholesterol (total [TC], LDL-C, HDL-C, non-HDL-C and remnant cholesterol) and TG were determined in 110 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia, and 46 healthy controls. TRL particle size, concentration and composition, and β-hydroxybutyrate (TG turnover marker) were assessed by NMR. Levels of apoCII, apoCIII, apoE, ANGPTL3, ANGPTL4, and ANGPTL8 were measured by ELISA, and apoCII, apoCIII and apoE were further evaluated in HDL and non-HDL fractions. Patients with schizophrenia had significantly elevated TG, TG:apoB ratio, non-HDL-C, remnant cholesterol, non-HDL-apoCII and non-HDL-apoCIII, and HDL-apoE (all P < 0.05), lower HDL-C and apoA-I (all P < 0.001), and comparable apoB, TC, TC:apoB ratio, LDL-C, β-hydroxybutyrate, ANGPTL3, ANGPTL4 and ANGPTL8 to healthy controls. Patients had a 12.0- and 2.5-fold increase in the concentration of large and medium TRL particles respectively, but similar cholesterol:TG ratio within each particle. Plasma TG, remnant cholesterol, and large and medium TRL particle concentrations correlated strongly with apoCII, apoCIII, and apoE in the non-HDL fraction, and with apoCIII and apoE in the HDL fraction in patients with schizophrenia. Differences in TG, HDL-C, TRL particle concentrations, apoCIII, and apoE persisted after adjustment for conventional risk factors. These results are consistent with impaired TRL lipolysis and clearance in patients with schizophrenia which may be responsive to targeting apoCIII.
