Higher triglyceride‑glucose index is associated with increased risk of stroke among middle-aged and elderly Chinese: a national longitudinal study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Stroke is a severe cerebrovascular disease. This study aimed to determine the association between triglyceride‑glucose (TyG) index and stroke among middle-aged and elderly Chinese. Data was extracted from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study survey 2015 and survey 2018. Logistic regression, trend test and subgroup analysis were conducted to assess the association. Possible nonlinear relationships were explored with restricted cubic spline (RCS). Propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted to attenuate the effect of confounding factors. ORs of stroke was positively associated with TyG index. The ORs in RCS analysis also increased with the rising TyG, though p for non-linearity was bigger than 0.05. After PSM, the ORs in the full adjusted models were 1.28 (1.01, 1.62). TyG was suggested as an independent risk factor for stroke in the middle aged and elderly Chinese.
