Plasma lipopolysaccharide binding protein level statistically mediates between body mass index and chronic microinflammation in Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes.

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
Recently, it is widely recognized that microinflammation plays important roles in the pathophysiology of metabolic diseases, especially obesity-related disorders, diabetes and their complications. Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) is a liver-derived acute-phase protein responsive to lipopolysaccharides (LPS) produced by gram-negative bacteria, thus reflects the systemic inflammation caused by the infection of those bacteria including gut dysbiosis. In this study, we evaluated the plasma LBP levels and investigated its clinical significance in 67 Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes. Univariable analysis showed that LBP levels were significantly associated with body mass index (BMI;
