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

purpose of reviewMultiple agents are being developed that inhibit apolipoprotein (apo) C-III. This state-of-the-art review examines their potential for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk reduction. RECENT

findingsApo C-III, an apolipoprotein on the surface of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs), impairs clearance of TRLs through both lipoprotein lipase dependent and independent pathways, thereby resulting in increased concentrations of triglycerides. Apo C-III has also been shown to have pro-atherogenic effects when bound to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. Classical and genetic epidemiology studies provide support for the concept that apo C-III is associated with an increased risk of ASCVD events. Drug efficacy of agents that silence APOC3 mRNA has been studied in populations with varying hypertriglyceridemia severity, including those with familial chylomicronemia syndrome, multifactorial chylomicronemia syndrome/severe hypertriglyceridemia, and mixed hyperlipidemia. Randomized controlled trials have reported significant reductions in TG and non-HDL cholesterol levels among these patients treated with APOC3 inhibitors. Upcoming clinical outcomes trials seek to establish a role for APOC3 inhibitors to reduce risk of ASCVD.
