Lipoprotein Insulin Resistance Index: A Simple, Accurate Method for Assessing Insulin Resistance in South Asians.
Article in Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Context: Identification of insulin resistance (IR) in South Asians, who are at a higher risk for type 2 diabetes, is important. Lack of standardization of insulin assays limits the clinical use of insulin-based surrogate indices. The lipoprotein insulin resistance index (LP-IR), a metabolomic marker, reflects the lipoprotein abnormalities observed in IR. The reliability of the LP-IR index in South Asians is unknown. Objective: We evaluated the predictive accuracy of LP-IR compared with other IR surrogate indices in South Asians. Methods: In a cross-sectional study (n = 55), we used calibration model analysis to assess the ability of the LP-IR score and other simple surrogate indices (Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance, Quantitative insulin sensitivity check index, Adipose insulin resistance index, and Matsuda Index) to predict insulin sensitivity (S Results: The simple surrogate indices showed moderate correlations with S Conclusion: The LP-IR index is a simple, accurate, and clinically useful test to assess IR in South Asians.
