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

Despite the modern era of effective and safe high-intensity statins and non-statin agents, a significant portion of patients are still unable to achieve guideline-recommended lipid goals for the prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) events. Accordingly, novel strategies are needed to further mitigate residual risk for patients on the background of maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapies. The past decade has seen an explosion of new agents leveraging ribonucleic acid (RNA)-based technology which reduce plasma lipoprotein levels. In this state-of-the-art review, we examine the ongoing clinical development of lipid-lowering RNA therapeutics. We discuss the efficacy and safety profiles of antisense oligonucleotides and small interfering RNA agents targeting low-density lipoprotein, lipoprotein(a), and triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. We also present challenges future clinical trials must answer to prove RNA therapeutics as a viable strategy for ASCVD prevention among patients with refractory hyperlipidemia.
