Association between triglyceride glycemic index and ejection fraction preserved heart failure in hypertensive patients.
Article in PeerJ, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is regarded as an independent predictor of cardiovascular disease consequences and a reliable surrogate measure of insulin resistance (IR). However, the correlation analysis between triglyceride glucose index and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in patients with essential hypertension remains unknown. Methods: A single-center, retrospective study was conducted with patients diagnosed with essential hypertension at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, from December 2018 to September 2020. Participants were selected based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, with their clinical data and laboratory tests collected. The study employed Spearman's correlation analysis, logistic regression models, restricted cubic spline plots, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves to investigate the relationships between the TyG index and HFpEF. Results: Out of 1,602 enrolled hypertensive patients, 992 were included in the analysis after applying exclusion criteria. Patients were categorized into tertiles based on the TyG index, which showed that patients in the highest tertile had characteristics associated with a higher risk of HFpEF, including age, body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SBP), N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and left ventricular mass index (LVMI). A significant, independent association between the TyG index and HFpEF was confirmed, with an odds ratio (OR) of 5.127 (95% CI [3.894-6.856]). Furthermore, an S-shaped nonlinear relationship was observed between the TyG index and the incidence of HFpEF (nonlinear Conclusion: The study underscores a significant association between IR, as indicated by the TyG index, and the development of HFpEF in hypertensive patients. It highlights the critical role of metabolic dysfunction in the pathophysiology of HFpEF, advocating for a broader perspective on cardiovascular risk management.
