Relationship Between Dietary Inflammatory Index and Carotid Artery Calcification in Patients with Ischemic Stroke.
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 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
Background and Purpose: Diet may influence systemic inflammatory status, vascular calcification, and, therefore, the development of atherosclerosis. The Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) is a measure of the inflammatory potential of diet. Although previous studies have examined the relationship between DII and cardiovascular diseases, its specific association with carotid artery calcification in ischemic stroke patients remains insufficiently explored. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and carotid artery calcification in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods: This is a retrospective cross-sectional analysis based on a prospective registry database. Patients with ischemic stroke were enrolled via Nanjing Stroke Registry Program. DII was calculated based on 39 food components with the help of a food frequency questionnaire. Carotid artery calcification was quantified as calcification score using the Agatston method based on computed tomography angiography. The data were compared among patients stratified by tertiles of DII. Multiple logistic regression models were used to evaluate the influence of DII on carotid artery calcification. Spearman analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between DII and ln-transformed carotid artery calcification score. Results: Of the 601 enrolled, carotid artery calcification was detected in 368 (61.23%) patients. Compared with patients with the lowest DII, those with higher DII had a higher ratio of stroke subtypes of large artery atherosclerosis ( Conclusion: DII was associated with carotid artery calcification in patients with ischemic stroke. Considering a possible causal relationship, the mechanism of this relationship warrants further investigation.
