The Relationship Between Triglyceride Glucose Index and Vitamin D in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Diabetes, metabolic syndrome and obesity : targets and therapy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
purposeThe study aimed to investigate the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH) D] and triglyceride glucose index (TyG) levels in male and female patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). PATIENTS AND
methodsThis cross-sectional study recruited 592 patients with type 2 diabetes. The subjects were divided into the non-vitamin D deficiency group [25(OH)D≥20ng/mL] and the vitamin D deficiency group [25(OH)D<20ng/mL]. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is calculated using the following formula, ln[fasting triglycerides (mg/dL)*fasting blood glucose (mg/dL)/2]. Participants were divided into high TyG group and low TyG group, with the median of TyG as the boundary. All participants were divided into male and female groups and normal Body mass index (BMI) and high BMI groups, and then divided into high TyG group and low TyG group.
resultsWe found that TyG levels are independently and negatively correlated with vitamin D levels in male patients with T2DM. In the female group, there was no significant correlation between TyG and vitamin D levels, regardless of an adjusted or unadjusted confounding factor. Subgroup analysis showed that the correlation between TyG and the risk of vitamin D deficiency in the normal BMI group was significantly stronger than that in the high BMI group.
conclusionThis study indicates that vitamin D deficiency is related to high TyG level in patients with T2DM for males, and this relationship is not significant for female patients. The risk of vitamin D deficiency is significantly correlated with high TyG level in normal BMI group. However, there was no statistically significant difference between TyG level and the risk of vitamin D deficiency in the high BMI group. Difference between TyG level and the risk of vitamin D deficiency.
