Gender-specific relationships between hyperuricemia and idiopathic deep venous thrombosis in the Chinese population: a case‒control study.

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
backgroundMany studies have indicated that hyperuricemia is positively correlated with secondary deep venous thrombosis (DVT); however, the risk factors for idiopathic DVT based on gender differences, such as serum uric acid (SUA) and hyperuricemia, have not been fully examined.
objectivesTo investigate the association between hyperuricemia and the occurrence of idiopathic lower extremity DVT based on gender differences.
methodsThis was a retrospective analysis of 4299 patients who were hospitalized at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2012 to October 2021 and who underwent ultrasound of the lower limbs. A total of 930 patients were diagnosed in the DVT group, and 3369 patients were diagnosed in the control group without DVT. The baseline SUA and other important baseline data were compared between the two groups, and sex was stratified. Multivariate logistic regression analysis models adjusted for potential confounders were used to investigate the associations between hyperuricemia and idiopathic lower extremity DVT.
resultsThe SUA level in patients with idiopathic DVT was significantly greater than that in patients without DVT (total: 6.00 ± 1.75 vs. 5.40 ± 1.56 mg/dL, respectively; male: 6.42 ± 1.60 vs. 5.87 ± 1.57 mg/dL, respectively; female: 5.58 ± 1.79 vs. 4.72 ± 1.27 mg/dL, respectively; all P < 0.001). The proportion of patients with hyperuricemia in the idiopathic DVT group was significantly greater than that in the control group (total: 29.03% vs. 16.10%, respectively; male: 35.26% vs. 23.19%, respectively; female: 22.73% vs. 5.74%, respectively; all P < 0.001). The incidence of DVT in patients with hyperuricemia was significantly greater than patients with normouricemia (33.29% vs. 18.92%, respectively), and this difference was particularly prominent among women (58.01%). According to the univariate model, hyperuricemia was significantly associated with a grester risk of idiopathic DVT. After adjustment for potential confounders, this association remained significant. The risk of idiopathic lower extremity DVT in patients with hyperuricemia was 2.643-fold greater than that in patients with normouricemia (Model 3: OR: 2.643, 95% CI: 2.165-3.228). After stratification by sex, the risk of idiopathic lower extremity DVT in female patients with hyperuricemia was 7.482-fold greater than that in patients with normouricemia (Model 3, OR: 7.482, 95% CI: 4.999-11.199).
conclusionIn the Chinese population, hyperuricemia is closely related to an increased risk of idiopathic lower extremity DVT, especially in female patients.
