The Correlation Between Triglyceride-Glucose Index and SARS-CoV-2 RNA Re-Positive in Discharged COVID-19 Patients.

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
Objective: Facing the challenge to manage the SARS-CoV-2 RNA re-positive in discharged COVID-19 patients, it is necessary to explore the limited early risk factors for identifying SARS-CoV-2 RNA re-positive. The triglyceride and glucose index (TyG) has been developed as a surrogate marker of insulin resistance. This study aims to evaluate the correlation of the TyG index with the re-positive of COVID-19. Methods: A total of 144 COVID-19 patients from Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical University (China) were enrolled in this study. All of them were discharged after recovery according to the guidelines. We compared the clinical characteristics and laboratory indexes of re-positive and non-re-positive COVID-19 patients, and analyzed the early risk factors for identifying SARS-CoV-2 RNA re-positive. Results: During the follow-up, a total of 18 patients were tested re-positive for SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Re-positive COVID-19 patients had higher proportion of abidol (P=0.018), antibiotic use (P=0.024) and hepatitis-based diseases (P=0.042), and higher heart rate (P=0.011) at admission (P=0.026), while lower TyG index (P=0.036), eGFR (P=0.034), TG (P=0.015) and C1q (P=0.023). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that TyG index was an independent risk factor for the re-positive of SARS-CoV-2 RNA (P=0.005). TyG index was significantly correlated with Glu (P<0.001), TG (P<0.001) and HDL-C (P<0.001). In addition, it was found that TyG index decreased at SARS-CoV-2 RNA positive stage and increased at negative stage (P<0.05). Conclusion: TyG index may be a valuable marker for identifying the re-positive of COVID-19 patients and may play a role in determining the stage of the patient's disease. We hope to provide a reliable theoretical basis for clinical prediction and effective control of re-positive episodes, and to provide a breakthrough for further research on the causes of re-positive episodes and the immune mechanism of the virus.
