A comparison between lipid-based vs. glycemic-based insulin sensitivity indices for the association with abnormal ECG findings and 20-year mortality among older 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
backgroundA direct comparison between glycemic-based and lipid-based insulin sensitivity indices (ISIs) for ECG findings and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality is lacking.
methods963 community-dwelling older adults, examined as part of the third phase of the Glucose intolerance, Obesity, and Hypertension study between 1999 and 2008, were followed until December 2016 and December 2019 for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, respectively. Eleven different ISIs were calculated and evaluated against ECG findings, all-cause, and cardiovascular mortality with multivariable regression models. The area under the receiver operating curve (AUC) and net reclassification improvement (NRI) analysis were implemented to compare ISIs performance.
resultsMean age was 72.3 ± 7 years and 471 (49%) were females. Ischemic ECG changes were observed in 107 (11.2%) individuals. Upper quartile (Q
conclusionsTyG-WTHR was the only ISI associated with ischemic changes on ECG and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality and significantly improved the predictive performance for all-cause cardiovascular mortality. While most glycemic-based and lipid-based ISIs showed similar predictive ability, TyG-WTHR stands as the preferred ISI and should be considered for screening at-risk individuals for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
