The Value of RBP4 in Assessing Coronary Artery Elasticity in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Existing research has shown that retinol binding protein (RBP4) has an impairing effect on arterial elasticity and induces insulin resistance, but the clinical value of RBP4 in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has not been investigated. This study sought to compare the complexity of coronary artery lesions and coronary artery elasticity between patients with CHD combined with T2DM and those with CHD without T2DM, analyze the risk factors affecting coronary artery elasticity, and investigate the value of RBP4 in assessing coronary artery elasticity in patients with CHD and T2DM. Methods: A total of 130 patients with confirmed CHD were consecutively enrolled, including 38 patients with CHD combined with T2DM and 92 patients with CHD without T2DM. Basic clinical data, laboratory findings, coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging data, and Gensini scores and coronary artery elasticity parameters were calculated in both groups. Elasticity parameters included: stiffness parameter ( Results: Compared with patients in the CHD without T2DM group, patients in the CHD combined with T2DM group had higher RBP4 levels, Gensini scores, Conclusions: RBP4 was an independent risk factor of coronary artery elasticity in CHD patients with T2DM and in overall CHD patients, but it did not affect coronary artery elasticity in CHD patients without T2DM.
