Cross-sectional associations of metabolic risk indices and cardiometabolic multimorbidity among adults with depressive symptoms: evidence from China and the United Kingdom.

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
Introduction: Depression is associated with cardiovascular disease, but the impact of metabolic markers on cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) remains unclear. We examined the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) in relation to CMM risk in depressed adults from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) and the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA). Material and methods: We analyzed 3,225 depressed Chinese (CHARLS) and 353 UK (ELSA) individuals aged ≥ 50 years. CMM comprised diabetes, coronary heart disease, and stroke. Metabolic dysregulation was assessed using AIP and TyG indices. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the associations. Results: In CHARLS, the CMM group had significantly higher AIP (0.47 ±0.29 vs. 0.36 ±0.28) and TyG (8.96 ±0.72 vs. 8.65 ±0.62) than the non-CMM group ( Conclusions: AIP and TyG are independent predictors of CMM in depressed adults across different cultural contexts. These indices are promising, accessible tools for early risk stratification and targeted intervention to manage cardiometabolic multimorbidity in depression.
