Cardiometabolic risk indicators in individuals with bipolar disorders: a replication study.
Article in Diabetology & metabolic syndrome, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesWe recently conducted the first longitudinal study comparing cardiometabolic risk indicators (CMRIs) between a cohort of individuals with bipolar disorders (BDs) and controls from the general population. Here, we sought to validate the findings in that study using an independent case-control sample.
methodsWe used data from the St. Göran project's Gothenburg cohort. The BDs group and the control group were examined at baseline and after a median of eight and seven years, respectively. Data collection occurred between March 2009 and June 2022. We used multiple imputation to handle missing data and linear mixed effects model to examine the annual change in CMRIs over the study period.
resultsThe baseline cohort included 407 individuals with BDs (mean age 40 years, 63% women) and 56 controls (mean age 43 years, 54% women). Of those, 63 persons with BDs and 42 controls participated at follow-up. At baseline, individuals with BDs had significantly higher mean values of body mass index (β = 0.14, p = 0.003) than controls. Over the study period, the difference in average annual change between the patient and the control group indicated an increase in patients relative to controls in waist-to-hip ratio (0.004 unit/year, p = 0.01), diastolic (0.6 mm Hg/year, p = 0.048), and systolic (0.8 mm Hg/year, p = 0.02) blood pressure.
conclusionsThis study replicated the main findings from our previous study and showed that central obesity and measures of blood pressure worsened over a relatively short time in individuals with BDs relative to controls. It is vital for clinicians to monitor CMRIs in persons with BDs and to be proactive in preventing cardiometabolic diseases in this high-risk group.
