Lp-PLA2 Activity and Genotype-Guided Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Minor Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack.
Trial report in Stroke, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04078737 (Clopidogrel With Aspirin in High-risk Patients With Acute Non-disabling Cerebrovascular Events II), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
backgroundLp-PLA2 (lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2) is a sensitive biomarker of vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis. This study evaluated the influence of Lp-PLA2 activity on the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin among patients with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack carrying
methodsThe CHANCE-2 trial (Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients With Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events-II) randomized 6412 patients with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack carrying
resultsA total of 5919 patients were included (mean age, 64.4 years; 33.9% female). Among patients with low Lp-PLA2 activity, ticagrelor-aspirin reduced the 90-day risk of recurrent stroke compared with clopidogrel-aspirin (5.4% versus 7.4%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.54-0.97]). In patients with high Lp-PLA2 activity, no significant difference was observed (6.9% versus 8.2%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.84 [95% CI, 0.65-1.09]). The
