Relationships Between Insulin Resistance Surrogate Indicators and Chronic Kidney Disease in Non-Diabetic Individuals: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Study.

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
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the associations between insulin resistance (IR) surrogate indicators and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in non-diabetic individuals. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 29625 participants who underwent annual health examinations from January to December 2024. Based on estimated glomerular filtration rate, participants were divided into non-CKD and CKD groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationships between insulin resistance surrogate indicators, including metabolic score of insulin resistance (METS-IR), triglyceride glucose index (TyG), triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C), total cholesterol-high density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (Non-TG/HDL-C), and CKD, adjusting for potential confounders such as age, sex, blood pressure, and metabolic parameters. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and DeLong tests were used to compare the predictive performances of different indicators. Results: Among the recruited 29,625 participants, 8.01% (2372/29,625) participants were CKD patients. All insulin resistance surrogate indicators were found to be correlated with the prevalence of CKD. After adjusting for confounding variables, the METS-IR exhibited stronger association with CKD than other insulin resistance surrogate indicators; the odd ratio for CKD in the highest quartile of the METS-IR was 2.360 (95% CI:1.594-3.493). The ROC results showed the area under curve (AUC) of METS-IR were the best, with AUC = 0.681 (0.671-0.691), which was higher than TyG, TG/HDL-C, and NonTG/HDL-C. Results of the DeLong test showed that there was a statistically significant difference between METS-IR and other IR indicators. Conclusion: IR indicators (METS-IR, TyG, TG/HDL-C, and NonTG/HDL-C) were positively correlated with the prevalence of CKD in the non-diabetic population. The METS-IR had the best predictive ability for CKD in this population. Detection and early intervention of elevated IR indicators may help prevent CKD in non-diabetic individuals.
