Cardiometabolic Index is associated with heart failure: a cross-sectional study based on NHANES.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Introduction: Heart failure is a complex syndrome characterized by impaired cardiac function. Despite improvements in treatment, the prevalence of heart failure continues to rise. The Cardiometabolic Index (CMI), a novel measure combining abdominal obesity and lipid levels, has emerged as a potential predictor of cardiac metabolic risk. Methods: We analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) involving 22,586 participants to investigate the association between CMI and heart failure. Multivariable logistic regression models and RCS analysis were used to explore the association between heart failure and CMI after adjusting for potential confounders. Subgroup analyses were performed among populations with different demographic and clinical characteristics. Results: Our results revealed a significant positive correlation between CMI and heart failure, with odds ratios of 2.77 and 1.87 for the highest quartile after adjusting for confounders. Subgroup analyses indicated heightened risks among older adults and those with hypertension or diabetes. ROC curve analysis demonstrated that CMI offers good diagnostic value for heart failure, surpassing traditional measures like BMI. Discussion: Our findings suggest that CMI is a valuable tool for assessing the risk of heart failure, particularly in individuals with increased abdominal obesity or abnormal lipid profiles. This highlights the importance of addressing cardiac metabolic health in both prevention and treatment strategies for heart failure. Future research should focus on exploring causal relationships and refining predictive models that incorporate CMI to enhance early detection and intervention.
