The relationship between triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and cardiovascular high risk: a cross-sectional investigation.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Aims: The triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio reflects the balance between atherogenic and anti-atherogenic lipid fractions. The study aims to investigate the utility of the TG/HDL-C ratio in identifying high-risk groups for cardiovascular disease (CVD) within the general population. Methods: The current study was a branch of the ChinaHEART cohort in middle China that involved a total of 6,593 community-dwelling adults. We examine the association between TG/HDL-C and CVD high-risk in a cross-sectional investigation. Results: Results from restricted cubic spline and ROC analyses revealed a significant relationship between higher TG/HDL-C levels and increased odds of CVD high-risk, with the ratio exhibiting good discriminatory power (AUC = 0.820 in the fully adjusted model). Logistic regression further supported this association, indicating a 1.21-fold rise in the odds of high risk for each unit increase in TG/HDL-C. Conclusions: The TG/HDL ratio shows promise for CVD risk assessment. Incorporating the TG/HDL ratio into risk assessment models may provide supplementary information to healthcare professionals for risk stratification.
