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

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of current lipid-lowering therapy in achieving low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goals in Indian patients undergoing coronary revascularization. Consecutive subjects (n = 1275, mean age 60.0 ± 9.7 years, 87.2 % men) with newly diagnosed coronary artery disease and undergoing coronary revascularization during the period 1 Jan 2023 to 31 Dec 2023 were included. After a median follow-up of 99 days (interquartile range 91-109 days), the mean LDL-C was 63.9 ± 24.3 mg/dL with 67.5% and 29.9% of subjects having LDL-C <70 mg/dL and <50 mg/dL, respectively. These proportions were 70.8% and 32.1% for patients treated with high-intensity statin therapy (rosuvastatin 20-40 mg/d or atorvastatin 40-80 mg/d). Among patients treated with rosuvastatin 40 mg/d and ezetimibe 10 mg/d, 53.3% achieved LDL-C <50 mg/dL. These findings underscore the need for greater usage of combination lipid-lowering therapy and agents with high LDL-C lowering efficacy.
