2025 Egyptian guidelines for the management of dyslipidemia.
Review in The Egyptian heart journal : (EHJ) : official bulletin of the Egyptian Society of Cardiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
backgroundThe burden of premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in Egypt remains disproportionately high, and current international dyslipidemia guidelines have proven insufficient in achieving target lipid levels in the local population. This underscores the necessity for a context-specific national guideline. The 2025 Egyptian Guidelines for the Management of Dyslipidemia were developed through a structured consensus process led by an expert panel of cardiologists, endocrinologists, and representatives from national medical societies. MAIN TEXT: The methodology included two rounds of blind voting followed by a consensus meeting to ensure rigorous evaluation. The guidelines emphasize the importance of early detection of dyslipidemia through systematic screening programs and prioritize lifestyle interventions as the cornerstone of management. A novel "extreme-risk" category was introduced to identify patients requiring intensified lipid-lowering strategies, including early initiation of combination pharmacotherapy. Additionally, the recommendations highlight the critical role of ongoing monitoring and follow-up to sustain long-term lipid control and reduce cardiovascular risk.
conclusionThe current guidelines provide a simplified, yet evidence-based framework tailored to the Egyptian population, aiming to optimize dyslipidemia management, reduce ASCVD-related complications, and improve overall cardiovascular outcomes.
