Epigenetic regulation in coronary artery disease: from mechanisms to emerging therapies.
Review in Frontiers in molecular biosciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Atherosclerosis, the primary cause of coronary artery disease (CAD), remains a leading global cause of mortality. It is characterized by the accumulation of cholesterol-rich plaques and inflammation, which narrow the coronary arteries and increase the risk of rupture. To elucidate this complex biological process and improve therapeutic strategies, CAD has been extensively explored from an epigenetic perspective over the past two decades. Epigenetics is a field investigating heritable alterations in gene expression without DNA sequence changes, such as DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs. Increasing evidence has indicated that the development of CAD is significantly influenced by epigenetic changes. Meanwhile, the impact of epigenetics in CAD is now transitioning from pathophysiology to therapeutics. Focusing on the key epigenetic enzymes and their target genes will help to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of CAD. This review synthesizes novel epigenetic insights into CAD, addressing the pathological processes, key molecular mechanisms, and potential biomarkers. Furthermore, we discuss emerging therapeutic strategies targeting epigenetic pathways. By focusing on pivotal enzymes and their associated genes, this work aims to advance CAD diagnostics and interventions.
