Lipoprotein insulin resistance score and risk of incident diabetes during extended follow-up of 20 years: The Women's Health Study.
Article in Journal of clinical lipidology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 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
backgroundType II diabetes (T2D) is preceded by prolonged insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency incompletely captured by glucose metabolism parameters, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and triglycerides.
objectiveWhether lipoprotein insulin resistance (LPIR) score, a metabolomic marker, is associated with incident diabetes and improves risk reclassification over traditional markers on extended follow-up.
methodsAmong 25,925 nondiabetic women aged 45 years or older, LPIR was measured by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy as a weighted score of very low density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, and HDL particle sizes, and their subsets concentrations. We run adjusted cox regression models for LPIR with incident T2D (20.4 years median follow-up).
resultsAdjusting for demographics, body mass index, life style factors, blood pressure, and T2D family history, the LPIR hazard ratio for T2D (hazard ratio [HR] per standard deviation, 95% confidence interval) was 1.95 (1.85, 2.06). Further adjusting for HbA1c, C-reactive protein, triglycerides, HDL and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LPIR HR was attenuated to 1.41 (1.31, 1.53) and had the strongest association with T2D after HbA1C in mutually adjusted models. The association persisted even in those with optimal clinical profiles, adjusted HR per standard deviation 1.91 (1.17, 3.13). In participants deemed at intermediate T2D risk by the Framingham Offspring T2D score, LPIR led to a net reclassification of 0.145 (0.117, 0.175).
conclusionIn middle-aged or older healthy women followed prospectively for over 20 years, LPIR was robustly associated with incident T2D, including among those with an optimal clinical metabolic profile. LPIR improved T2D risk classification and may guide early and targeted prevention strategies.
