Association between remnant cholesterol and risk of kidney stones: a case-control study in Chinese adults.

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
Remnant cholesterol (RC), a key indicator of dyslipidemia, has been validated as a contributing factor to metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, both of which are closely associated with kidney stones (KS). This study aimed to investigate the association between RC and the risk of KS in Chinese adults. A total of 8,576 KS cases (mean age 55.87, 69.37% male) and 137,523 controls (mean age 54.57, 51.62% male) were included in this case-control study. RC was calculated using the formula: RC = TC-HDL-LDL. KS was ascertained with ultrasound by well-trained physicians. Multivariable logistic and restricted cubic spline (RCS) were applied to investigate the relationship between RC and KS. A total of 146,099 subjects (weighted mean age 54.64 years and 52.66% male) were included with mean RC = 0.8 for controls and RC = 0.72 for KS cases (P < 0.001). The multivariable-adjusted OR for KS occurrence across consecutive quartiles was 1.00 (reference), 1.05 (0.98-1.12), 1.15 (1.07-1.22), and 1.44 (1.35-1.53), respectively. Moreover, each standard deviation increment of RC was associated with a 15% (OR:1.15, 95% CI: 1.12-1.19) higher risk of KS occurrence. RCS showed significant and linear dose-response relationships between RC and KS occurrence (P-overall < 0.001, P-nonlinear = 0.270). The positive associations between RC and KS risk persisted in sensitivity analyses, suggesting the robustness of the results. In this case-control study of Chinese adults, elevated RC was associated with the occurrence of KS.
