Metabolic syndrome in systemic lupus erythematosus was closely related to body mass index, blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, and arthritis.

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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivePrevention and control of metabolic syndrome is the key to improving the development of systemic lupus erythematosus. The aim of this study was to analyze the relevant factors regarding metabolic syndrome (MS) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
methodsA total number of 1238 SLE patients in Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College, Anhui province, from February 2012 to July 2017, were analyzed retrospectively. SLE patients with MS were grouped to group SLE-MS, the others without MS was grouped to group SLE-nMS. The two groups were compared with respect to general characteristics, clinical signs, and laboratory parameters. Random forest approach and multivariate logistic regression were conducted to analyze the related factors regarding MS in SLE.
resultsThe constituent ratio of metabolic syndrome was 27.14% (336/1238). More SLE patients with MS presented with more farmers, more married people, lower education level, and more lupus nephritis, proteinuria, oral ulcers, tubular urine, hematuria than SLE patients without MS (
conclusionMS in SLE was closely related to BMI, blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, arthritis, white blood cells, and urea. Targeted prevention and conclusion measures for the risk factors should be taken as early as possible.
