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

backgroundTriglyceride-glucose-BMI (TyG-BMI) index is a surrogate marker of insulin resistance and an important predictor of cardiovascular disease. However, the predictive value of TyG-BMI index in the progression of non-severe aortic stenosis (AS) is still unclear.

methodsThe present retrospective observational study was conducted using patient data from Aortic valve diseases RISk facTOr assessmenT andprognosis modeL construction (ARISTOTLE). A total of 190 patients were recruited from one-center. Patients were divided into two groups according to the cut-off value of TyG-BMI index (Ln[triglycerides (mg/dL)* glucose (mg/dL)/2]*BMI). Cox regression and restricted subgroup analysis were used to evaluate the association of TyG-BMI index and progression of non-severe AS.

resultsA total of 190 patients (mean age 72.52 ± 11.97 years, 51.58% male) were included in the study. During a median follow-up period of 27.48 months, 44 participants experienced disease progression. The cut-off of the TyG-BMI index is 239. After fully adjusting for confounding factors, high TyG-BMI index group was associated with a 2.219-fold higher risk of aortic stenosis progression (HR 2.219, 95%CI 1.086-4.537, p = 0.029).

conclusionTyG-BMI index was significantly associated with a higher risk of progression to non-severe AS. TyG-BMI index, as an effective alternative indicator of IR, can identify people at high risk of AS progression at an early stage of the disease, thereby improving the prognosis and reducing the socio-economic burden.
