The association between triglyceride glucose-body mass index and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in diabetes patients: a retrospective study from NHANES database.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
The triglyceride glucose body mass index (TyG-BMI) is a potential indicator for insulin resistance, but its association with mortality in diabetic patients is unclear. This study investigates the relationship between TyG-BMI and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in diabetics. The study included 3109 diabetic patients from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2001-2018). Mortality data were obtained from National Death Index records until 31 December 2019. Multivariate Cox models analyzed the association between TyG-BMI and mortality. Non-linear correlations were assessed using restricted cubic splines, and a two-piecewise Cox model evaluated the relationship on both sides of the inflection point. Over a median 7.25-year follow-up, 795 total and 238 cardiovascular deaths occurred. A U-shaped link was found between initial TyG-BMI and mortality in diabetic patients. Low TyG-BMI (< 279.67 for all-cause, < 270.19 for CVD) reduced death risks (all-cause: HR 0.77, 95% CI 0.69-0.86; CVD: HR 0.64, 95% CI 0.48-0.86). High TyG-BMI (> 279.67 for all-cause, > 270.19 for CVD) increased these risks (all-cause: HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.10-1.44; CVD: HR 1.33, 95% CI 1.06-1.68). In the NHANES study population, a U-shaped association was observed between the baseline TyG-BMI index and all-cause mortality or CVD in diabetic patients.
