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

backgroundThe triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index was associated with higher risk of mortality in individuals with Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) syndrome stages 0-3. However, the relationship between cumulative of TyG (cumTyG) and incidence of stroke remains unclear in individuals with CKM syndrome stages 0-3.

methodParticipants with CKM syndrome stage 0-3 were enrolled from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) from 2011 to 2015. TyG was calculated as ln [fasting triglyceride (mg/dL)×fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2], and the cumTyG, as an area-under-the-curve estimate (mean TyG × time span), was calculated as (TyG

resultsA total of 4,700 CKM syndrome stages 0-3 participants were enrolled, among 280 patients had developed stroke during the 3-year follow-up period. After adjusting for confounders, compared to class 1 group, the odds ratio (OR) of incidents of stroke for class 2 was 1.39 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.003, 1.92], P = 0.046; the OR of incidents of stroke for class 3 was 1.28 (95% CI 0.92-1.77), P = 0.147, the OR of incidents of stroke for class 4 was 1.28 (95% CI 0.84-1.94), P = 0.238. Elevated cumTyG was associated with an increase in incidence of stroke (OR 1.13, 95% CI 1.05, 1.22, P = 0.002). The relationship between the cumTyG index and stroke was linear in restricted cubic spline regression.

conclusionsElevated cumTyG was associated with an increased risk of stroke events in the population of CKM syndrome stages 0-3. Long-term dynamic monitoring of changes of TyG may help in the early identification of patients at high risk of developing stroke in the individuals with CKM syndrome stages 0-3.
