Influence of remnant cholesterol levels on carotid intima thickness in type 2 diabetes patients.
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 2 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
Investigate the impact of remnant cholesterol (RC) levels on carotid artery intima thickness (CIT) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. From September 2021 to September 2023, a prospective multicenter study involved 158 T2DM patients. They were divided into a higher RC group (n = 80) and a lower RC group (n = 78) based on median RC levels. Additionally, 92 healthy volunteers served as the control group. CIT, carotid media thickness (CMT), and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) were measured. General clinical data, lab results, CIMT, CIT, and CMT differences among the three groups were compared. Multiple regression analysis explored CIT factors in T2DM patients. 1. No significant sex, age, BMI, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), T2DM duration, fasting blood glucose, or glycated hemoglobin differences were found among the groups (p > 0.05). 2. CIMT and CIT were significantly higher in T2DM than the control group (p < 0.05). 3. The higher RC group had thicker CIT than the lower RC group (p < 0.05), while CIMT differences were not significant (p > 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed RC as an influencing CIT factor in T2DM patients (β = 0.473, p = 0.005). CIT is significantly thicker in T2DM patients with higher RC than in those with lower RC, and RC is the influence factor of CIT, which suggests that more attention should be paid to the detection of RC in T2DM patients.
