Remnant cholesterol, but not other traditional lipids or lipid ratios, is independently and positively related to future diabetes risk in Chinese general population: A 3 year cohort study.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
aimsVery few cohort studies are available about the relation between remnant cholesterol (RC) and diabetes. Based on a prospective cohort survey, this research aimed at investigating if high RC was related to a future diabetes risk in the Chinese population, as well as to compare the association between RC, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), TG/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and future diabetes risk. MATERIALS AND
methods6,700 baseline normoglycemic participants of the REACTION study's Beijing center were recruited in 2011-2012 and followed up in 2015. Multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to explore the relationship of RC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TC, TG, LDL-C/HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, and non-HDL-C and a future diabetes risk.
resultsAfter potential confounders were adjusted for, only RC (HR 1.134, 95% CI 1.016-1.267, P = 0.025) was positively related to a future diabetes risk, and only HDL-C (HR 0.728, 95% CI 0.578-0.918, P = 0.007) was negatively related to a future diabetes risk. The rest of the lipid parameters were not related to a future risk of diabetes. Sensitivity and stratification analyses revealed that the relation between RC and future diabetes risk was stable. RC and future diabetes risk were still positively correlated even when the HDL-C was ≥1.04 mmol/L (HR 1.167, 95% CI 1.050-1.297, P = 0.004).
conclusionsIt was RC, but not other lipid parameters, that was independently and positively related to a future risk of diabetes among the Chinese general population. Moreover, the relationship between RC and diabetes risk was stable, even with appropriate levels of HDL-C.
