Association between triglyceride-glucose index and incidence risk of gout: a nationwide cohort study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The global burden of gout is substantial and expected to increase. We investigated the relationship between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a biomarker of insulin resistance, and gout risk in the general population over time. This study was conducted using data from the National Health Screening Cohort Database of South Korea (2002-2019) among 300,107 participants who had no history of gout and underwent more than three repeated TyG index measurements. During the median of 9.62 years (interquartile range 8.72-10.53), 14,116 individuals (4.72%) developed gout. In a multivariable time-dependent Cox proportional hazards model, a per-unit increase in the TyG index significantly increased gout risk (hazard ratio [HR] 1.150; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.116-1.184). The multivariate Cox proportional hazards model for average TyG index quartiles was positively associated with the incidence risk of gout, accompanied by a significant trend (HR 1.326, 95% CI 1.260-1.397). This association followed a J-shaped pattern with increased risk. Our findings highlight a strong link between elevated TyG index and gout incidence in the general population, suggesting that the TyG index may serve as a valuable predictor of gout risk.
