Association between serum uric acid and metabolic syndrome: a cross-sectional study in Bangladeshi adults.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 85 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Elevated levels of serum uric acid (SUA) have been suggested to associate with cardiovascular disease, diabetes and metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, information is limited on the association between SUA and MetS in general adults. This study aimed to assess the relationship of SUA with MetS and its components in general adults in Bangladesh. A total of 420 participants were enrolled in this study and biochemical parameters including SUA, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and lipid profile were analyzed using standard methods. The NECP criteria were applied to define MetS. The association of SUA with MetS and its components were evaluated by multinomial logistic regression models. The overall prevalence of MetS was 22% with 21.9% in males and 22.1% in female participants. Male subjects had a high prevalence of elevated components of MetS than in the female subjects (p < 0.05 for all cases). The mean concentration of SUA was significantly higher in subjects of the MetS group compared to the non-MetS group (p < 0.05). The components of MetS were raised with the increasing concentrations of SUA across the quartiles. In regression analysis, SUA was significantly associated with the prevalence of MetS in Bangladeshi adults. In conclusion, elevated SUA was significantly associated with the prevalence of MetS and its components.
