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

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the role of novel lipid-related indices in patients with nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) and investigate the correlation between these indices and NAION severity. Methods: All participants underwent comprehensive ocular examinations and serum lipid analysis. Novel lipid-related indices, including the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)/HDL-C ratio, and triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, were calculated using traditional lipid parameters and subsequently compared between patients with NAION and control participants. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the predictive values of these indices. Correlations between novel lipid-related indices and NAION severity were also investigated. Results: Forty-four patients with NAION and 42 control participants were included in this study. The levels of AIP and TyG were significantly elevated in patients with NAION compared to control participants, whereas the traditional lipid parameters in both groups remained within normal limits. The areas under the ROC curves for AIP and TyG were 0.725 and 0.758, respectively. Additionally, no significant correlations were observed among AIP, TyG, best-corrected visual acuity, peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, and mean deviation on visual field test. Conclusions: Elevated levels of AIP and TyG were observed in patients with NAION in this study, suggesting that AIP and TyG may serve as systemic metabolic risk markers significantly associated with NAION. Translational Relevance: The findings of this study help us better understand the underlying mechanisms of NAION and improve its diagnosis and management.
