Constant Association between Low High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Gastric Cancer Regardless of Site.
Article in Journal of obesity & metabolic syndrome, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Some epidemiologic factors and body mass index (BMI) have site-specific effects on gastric cancer. The site-specific effect of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and hyperglycemia on gastric cancer has not been reported. Methods: This study included adults who underwent national gastric cancer screening in 2011 (n=5.49 million). The validation set included gastric cancer patients (n=3,262) and gastric cancer-free persons who underwent health screening (n=14,121) in a single hospital. The site-specific effects of metabolic components and epidemiologic factors on gastric cancer were investigated. Results: Among 5.49 million individuals, 10,417 gastric cancer cases (6,764 non-cardiac gastric cancer [NCGC] and 152 cardiac gastric cancer [CGC]) were detected. BMI was inversely associated with NCGC ( Conclusion: Many epidemiologic factors had site-specific effects on gastric cancer, whereas low HDL-C and hyperglycemia were constantly associated with gastric cancer regardless of the site in two independent sets.
