Association Between Whole Blood Selenium Levels and Triglyceride-to-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio Among the General Population.
Article in Biological trace element research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Our study aimed to examine whether whole blood selenium (WBSe) levels are related to the triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio among the general population. A total of 13,470 adults were included and analyzed from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2018. In multivariable analyses, LnWBSe levels were significantly related to Ln(TG/HDL-C) ratio in fully adjusted model (β = 0.35; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.22, 0.48; P < 0.001). Furthermore, the highest quartile of LnWBSe levels was positively correlated with Ln(TG/HDL-C) ratio compared with the lowest quartile (β = 0.15; 95% CI: 0.10, 0.20; P for trend < 0.001). In the dose-response analyses, the correlation was non-linear. While LnWBSe levels < 1.10, LnWBSe levels were positively related to Ln(TG/HDL-C) ratio (β = 0.41; 95% CI: 0.31, 0.50; P < 0.001), whereas LnWBSe levels ≥ 1.10, the relationship was not significantly (β = - 0.20; 95% CI: - 0.54, 0.13; P = 0.228). The interaction test was significant for age, sex, total cholesterol (TC), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (all P for interaction < 0.05). Overall, WBSe levels were positively related to TG/HDL-C ratio, with a non-linear trend. Further research is required to determine these underlying mechanisms.
