Dietary and plasma atherogenic and thrombogenic indices and cardiometabolic risk factors among overweight and individuals with obesity.
Article in BMC endocrine disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundObesity and hyperlipidemia are the two central metabolic disorders linked to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Apart from dyslipidemia, the Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP), which is associated with dietary consumption, is another marker for predicting the risk of CVD. Healthy fat quality indicators may impact AIP. The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether there is any connection between Iranian obese people's plasma and dietary indices and cardiometabolic risk factors.
methodsThis cross-sectional study, consisted of 645 overweight and obese participants. The study included assessments of body composition and anthropometric measurements. Dietary fatty acid consumption was evaluated using a validated Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) containing 168 items. Additionally, biochemical parameters, including serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), fasting serum glucose (FSG), and insulin levels, were measured using enzymatic methods. The lipid profile was quantified.
resultsFor participants in higher tertiles of the AIP, the percentage of men was significantly higher than women (men: 48.1%, women: 51.7%, p < 0.001). Additionally, individuals in higher tertiles of AIP had a higher waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (mean WHR: 0.92 ± 0.05 vs. 0.86 ± 0.04 in lower tertile, p < 0.001). Participants in the highest tertile of AIP had higher systolic blood pressure (SBP: 132 ± 8 mmHg vs. 118 ± 6 mmHg in lower tertile, p < 0.001), total cholesterol (TC: 210 ± 15 mg/dL vs. 185 ± 12 mg/dL, p < 0.001), triglycerides (TG: 180 ± 20 mg/dL vs. 120 ± 15 mg/dL, p < 0.001), and glucose concentrations (fasting glucose: 105 ± 10 mg/dL vs. 90 ± 8 mg/dL, p < 0.001). Participants in the lower tertile of AIP had higher HDL cholesterol levels (HDL: 60 ± 5 mg/dL vs. 45 ± 4 mg/dL in higher tertile, p < 0.001). In the model for Thrombogenicity Index (TI), participants in the higher tertile had higher glucose concentrations (glucose: 110 ± 12 mg/dL vs. 95 ± 9 mg/dL in lower tertile, p = 0.04).
conclusionThis research introduces a novel field of investigation and emphasizes the possible importance of TI, AI, and AIP indices in regulating cardiometabolic risk factors.
