Inflammatory status and uricaemia determine HDL-cholesterol levels in hypertensive adults over 65: an analysis of the FAPRES register.

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
In inflammatory disease, the levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) decrease, and the composition of HLD-C changes. Data from the "non-inflammatory" general population indicate the presence of the same phenomenon, albeit to a smaller extent. Levels of uricaemia contribute to the overall inflammatory state of patients. The aim of this study was to analyse the association between inflammatory state, levels of uricaemia, and levels of HLD-C in a hypertensive Spanish population aged 65 or older. This was a retrospective analysis of the FAPRES database. We compared lipid levels [HDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol, and triglycerides] in terciles of patients according to their leukocyte counts and uricaemia. When we observed statistically significant differences at a 95% confidence level, we constructed a multivariable linear regression model to adjust for possible confounders. We analysed 860 patients (52.7% women) with a mean age of 72.9 years (±5.8). Participants in the highest tercile for leukocytes or uricaemia presented with significantly lower levels of HDL-C and higher levels of triglycerides, but there was no difference in total cholesterol or LDL-C. The multivariable analysis confirmed an independent and inverse association between HDL-C and both leukocytes (β = -0.001, p = 0.025) and uricaemia (β = -1.054, p = 0037) as well as an independent, direct association between triglycerides and both leukocytes (β = 0.004, p = 0.049), and uricaemia (β = 8.411, p = 0.003). In hypertensive adults aged 65 or older, inflammatory state, and uricaemia independently operate to decrease HDL-C-these findings confirm those described in studies in people with inflammatory disease. This phenomenon could help to define a proatherogenic profile in people without inflammatory disease.
