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
Objective: This study aimed to explore the association between the triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio and the risk and severity of CHD among NAFLD patients. Methods: This retrospective study included 278 patients with NAFLD and chest pain. The TG/HDL-C ratio was calculated and coronary angiography performed. All individuals were divided into NAFLD + CHD and NAFLD groups. The severity of coronary artery stenosis is quantified using the Gensini score based on angiographic results. In NAFLD patients, the association between the TG/HDL-C ratio and the risk and severity of CHD was explored. Results: CHD was detected in 139 of 278 patients. Compared to NAFLD group, multivariate logistic regression showed that TG/HDL-C ratio was a risk factor for CHD among NAFLD patients after adjustment for confounding factors with the odds ratio (OR 1.791, 95% CI 1.344-2.386, P<0.001). Further analysis using multivariate logistic regression based on tertiles revealed that, after adjusting for confounding factors, compared to the T1 group, the risk of CHD in the T2 group was 2.17-fold higher (OR, 2.17; 95% CI, 1.07-4.38; P = 0.031). Similarly, the risk of CHD in the T3 group increased by 2.84-fold (OR, 2.84; 95% CI, 1.36-5.94; P = 0.005). The multifactor linear regression analysis showed each 1-unit increase in TG/HDL-C ratio in the NAFLD + CHD group was associated with a 7.75-point increase in Gensini score (β=7.75, 95% CI 5.35-10.15, P<0.001). Conclusion: The TG/HDL-C ratio was positively correlated with CHD risk and reflected coronary atherosclerosis severity in NAFLD patients.
