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

Background: Elevated serum uric acid (SUA) correlates with inflammation, but the pan-immune inflammation value (PIV)-a novel integrated inflammatory marker-has not been explored in relation to SUA. We investigated cross-sectional and longitudinal PIV-SUA associations. Methods: We analyzed 5,766 participants aged ≥60 years from a 2018 cardiovascular examination cohort with 2022 follow-up. The PIV was calculated as neutrophil number × platelet number × monocyte number/lymphocyte number, with cell counts expressed as ×1000 cells/μL. Hyperuricemia was defined as SUA concentrations ≥ 420 μmol/L (7 mg/dL) in males and ≥ 360 μmol/L (6 mg/dL) in females. Cross-sectional associations were assessed via multivariate linear/logistic regression; longitudinal associations via Cox regression. Results: At baseline, hyperuricemia prevalence was 22.4% among 5,766 participants (mean age 68.5 years). Restricted cubic spline showed a nonlinear PIV-SUA relationship. In fully adjusted models, each 1-SD PIV increase associated with higher SUA (β ± SE: 3.7 ± 1.1; P<0.0001). PIV quartiles (vs. lowest) showed β values: Q2 = 7.5, Q3 = 6.7, Q4 = 12.5 (P trend<0.001). Logistical regression revealed each 1-SD PIV increase linked to higher hyperuricemia risk (OR = 1.12, 95%CI 1.05-1.29; P = 0.0003). PIV quartiles (vs. lowest) had ORs: Q2 = 1.27, Q3 = 1.23, Q4 = 1.54 (P trend<0.001). Over 4-year follow-up, Cox regression indicated a J-curve relationship between PIV and SUA/hyperuricemia, with the lowest risk at PIV quartile 2. Conclusions: PIV showed a nonlinear relationship with serum uric acid and hyperuricemia in cross-sectional analyses, while exhibiting a J-curve relationship in longitudinal studies. These suggest dynamic interactions between inflammatory markers and uric acid metabolism, dependent on inflammation duration.
