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

The mortality rate of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases ranks first among all causes. This study elucidated the role and potential mechanism of the NLRC5 gene in atherosclerosis (AS). We enrolled patients (number = 30) diagnosed with AS and healthy volunteers (number = 30) as controls from our hospital. In patients with AS, the levels of serum NLRC5 were up-regulated (Fig. 1A) and positively correlated with CIMT/CRP. In a mouse model of AS, the expression of serum NLRC5 mRNA was increased at 6 or 12 weeks after inducing AS. The expression of NLRC5 protein was found to be elevated in a mouse model of AS. The inhibition of NLRC5 reduced development of AS in ApoE
