1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeObesity is known to be strongly associated with hyperuricemia. Moreover, the impact of urine glucose excretion (UGE) on serum uric acid (UA) levels has gained much more attention in recent years. Yet concern is raised about whether UGE influences the relationship between obesity and hyperuricemia. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of UGE on the association between lipid accumulation product (LAP), a novel marker of visceral adipose accumulation, and UA in subjects with prediabetes. MATERIALS AND

methodsData were obtained from a cross-sectional study. A total of 3645 subjects with prediabetes were included in the present study. The separate and joint associations of LAP and UGE with hyperuricemia were examined using logistic regression analyses.

resultsLAP was positively associated with UA in both genders. Subgroup analysis based on UGE revealed that the association was strongest in subjects with low UGE (r = 0.328, p < 0.001), whereas the positive association was weakened, but still remained significant in subjects with moderate and high UGE. High LAP was significantly associated with an increased odds ratio for hyperuricemia after adjustment for potential confounders in the overall population (OR = 2.07, 95% CI: 1.66-2.58, p < 0.001). However, a downward trend in odds ratios for hyperuricemia was observed across UGE categories. In addition, the joint association analysis confirmed that the relationship between LAP and hyperuricemia was attenuated by UGE.

conclusionThe positive association between LAP and UA appears to be attenuated by UGE, indicating that promoting UGE may be an effective strategy for controlling UA levels, especially for people with obesity who are at increased risk for hyperuricemia.
