TG/HDL-c ratio as a predictor of progressive infarction in patients with anterior circulation single subcortical infarction.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2024. 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
backgroundThe contributors predicting progressive infarction (PI) in patients with anterior circulation single subcortical infarction (ACSSI) and pontine single infarction (PSI) may be unidentical. The role of triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-c) ratio on PI is unclear. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the correlation between TG/HDL-c ratio and PI in patients with ACSSI or PSI.
methodsBetween January 2020 and October 2022, we retrospectively enrolled 738 patients including 638 ACSSI patients and 100 PSI patients to analyze. Demographic characteristics, clinical information, and laboratory data were collected within 24 h of admission.
resultsPI occurred in 143 (19.4%) patients. In univariate analysis, patients with PI had higher initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, higher discharge NIHSS scores, higher levels of fasting glucose, total cholesterol, TG, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and TG/HDL-c ratio, but lower levels of creatinine compared to patients with non-PI (p < .05). Furthermore, the results of the subgroup analyses revealed the independent association between TG/HDL-c ratio and PI in ACSSI patients (OR 1.079, 95% CI 1.009-1.153, p = .026) rather than in PSI patients. Additionally, a receiver operating characteristic curve indicated that the optimal predictive cutoff value of the TG/HDL-c ratio was 3.985, and a TG/HDL-c ratio ≥3.985 was more likely to experience PI in ACSSI patients.
conclusionIn conclusion, the TG/HDL-c ratio was independently associated with PI in patients with ACSSI.
