Association of Antituberculosis Treatment and Lower Risk of Hyperlipidemia in Taiwanese Patients: A Population-Based Case-Control Study.

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
The association between anti-tuberculosis (TB) treatments and the risk of developing hyperlipidemia remains unclear. Data were obtained from the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database 2000 (LHID2000). The case group included patients newly diagnosed with hyperlipidemia (n=16,054) between 2006 and 2011 selected from the LHID2000. A four-fold number of hyperlipidemia-free cases (n=64,216) were matched with case patients by age, sex, and index year to create the control group. Univariable and multivariable unconditional logistic regression analyses were conducted to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between hyperlipidemia and anti-TB medication use. Patients that used isoniazid (INH) were significantly associated with a decreased risk of hyperlipidemia (OR=0.71, 95%CI=0.57-0.88). After adjustment for age, sex, urbanization level, and income as well as ethambutol, pyrazinamide, streptomycin, and anti-human immunodeficiency virus drug medications, a dose-dependent risk of hyperlipidemia was observed in the INH, rifampin (RIF), and INH and RIF groups with the ORs progressively decreasing as the cumulative dose increased. In the Taiwanese patients who used anti-TB medications, INH and RIF use was associated with a decreased risk of hyperlipidemia.
