Diabetes Mellitus Modifies the Association of Serum Triglycerides with Ischemic Cardiovascular Disease Mortality: The Ibaraki Prefectural Health Study (IPHS).
Article in Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
aimDiabetes mellitus and hypertriglyceridemia may adversely interact with the development of ischemic cardiovascular disease, but epidemiological evidence on this issue is scarce. We hypothesized that the impact of hypertriglyceridemia on ischemic cardiovascular disease (ischemic heart disease and ischemic stroke) would differ according to the presence or absence of diabetes mellitus and tested our a priori hypothesis under a large population-based prospective study.
methodsA total of 90,468 men and women aged 40-79 years in 1993 were enrolled in the Ibaraki Prefectural Health Study (IPHS), a community-based cohort study of Japanese. The participants' serum triglyceride levels (mostly nonfasting) were measured every 5 years, and the participants were followed up for mortality from ischemic cardiovascular disease through 2016. Hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) were calculated according to 5-year updated triglyceride levels (＜100, 100-149, 150-199, 200-299, and ≥ 300 mg/dl).
resultsDuring 1,795,877 person-years, there were 3,323 deaths from ischemic cardiovascular diseases (1,968 ischemic heart diseases and 1,355 ischemic strokes). We found no association between triglyceride levels and the risk of mortality from ischemic cardiovascular disease after adjustment for known cardiovascular risk factors. However, when stratified by the presence or absence of diabetes mellitus, excess mortality from ischemic cardiovascular disease appeared among participants with diabetes mellitus with triglyceride levels of ≥ 300 mg/dl. Further adjustment for high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol attenuated the association toward being statistically nonsignificant.
conclusionThe impact of high serum triglyceride levels on the risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease mortality was confined to participants with diabetes mellitus.
