1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a metabolic abnormality syndrome caused by disorders of purine metabolism. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (LHR) for the risk of developing HUA. We extracted data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) database from 2011 to 2016. Multivariable logistic regression, restricted cubic splines (RCSs) analysis, and linear correlation analysis were conducted to evaluate the association between LHR and risk of developing HUA. Subgroup analyses and interaction tests were also performed. A higher LHR was associated with an increased incidence of HUA (7.8% vs. 9.9% vs. 13.9, p < 0.001). The LHR was also higher in the HUA group compared to the non-HUA group (2.64 ± 1.07 vs. 2.40 ± 0.91, p < 0.001). When assessed as a continuous variable, LHR was independently associated with the risk of HUA (OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.16-1.39, p < 0.001). The risk of developing HUA was significantly higher among individuals with the highest LHR subgroup than those with the lowest LHR subgroup (OR = 1.81, 95% CI = 1.47-2.23, p < 0.001). RCS analysis revealed a significant nonlinear association between an increased LHR and a higher risk of developing HUA. The predictive abilities of LHR for HUA were 0.577. The composite variable comprising LHR and other traditional risk factors could significantly enhance the ability to predict HUA (C statistic = 0.677). In conclusion, a higher LHR was associated with an increased risk of developing HUA. Further studies on LHR could be beneficial for preventing and treating HUA.
