Triglyceride-Glucose Index Linked to In-Hospital Mortality in Critically Ill Patients with Heart Disease.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Background: As an alternative method to evaluate insulin resistance (IR), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) was shown to be related to the severity and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. The main aim of this study was to explore the association between TyG and in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with heart disease. Method: The calculation method of TyG has been confirmed in previous report: Ln [fasting TGs (mg/dL) Result: 4839 critically ill patients with heart disease were involved. The overall mortality was 8.53 cases per 100 idviduals. In-hospital mortality increased as TyG quartiles increased (Quartile 4 vs Quartile 1: 12.1 vs 5.3, Conclusions: TyG was independently correlated with in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with heart disease.
