PCSK9 as a Potential Regulator of Endothelial Dysfunction: Mechanistic Insights and Future Directions.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
The discovery of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and its role in promoting the degradation of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) has revolutionized lipid-lowering therapy, offering new therapy for patients with hypercholesterolemia. Notably, PCSK9 is now being explored for functions beyond lipid regulation. Emerging evidence implicates PCSK9 in vascular pathology by influencing endothelial dysfunction, inflammatory signaling, oxidative stress, and vascular homeostasis-potentially through LDLR-independent mechanisms. This review critically evaluates PCSK9's potential as a regulator of endothelial dysfunction, synthesizing findings from
