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

Background: Rosuvastatin is widely used for cardiovascular risk reduction, but treatment discontinuation limits its long-term benefit. Genetic variants, particularly in Methods: In this multicenter prospective cohort study, 422 adults prescribed rosuvastatin were followed for 12 months. Discontinuation data were collected from records or phone calls. Genotyping was performed using TaqMan SNP assays. Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses assessed discontinuation risk by genotype; LDL changes were analyzed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression. Results: The Conclusion: Minor allele carriers are at higher risk of discontinuation due to adverse effects. Genetic testing for
