Quantitative Assessment of Baseline Serum HDL-C to Predict Gout Flares During Urate-Lowering Therapy Initiation: A Prospective Cohort 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
Purpose: Previous studies have linked high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) to gout, but little is known about the dose-effect relationship between serum HDL-C levels and gout flares. This study aimed to quantify the association between the two during urate-lowering therapy initiation and develop a regression equation to predict gout flares. Patients and Methods: We conducted a prospective, observational, single-center cohort study of men with gout. Patients were identified and grouped according to the level of serum HDL-C (1.16 mmol/L) at baseline and followed-up every four weeks until 12 weeks. Results: A total of 394 participants completed the study (203 in the low HDL-C group; 191 in the high HDL-C group). The proportion of participants with gout flares in the low HDL-C group was significantly higher than in the high HDL-C group after 12 weeks follow-up (52.2% versus 35.6%, Conclusion: Patients with gout presented a negative linear relationship between serum HDL-C and gout flares. Together with common clinical indicators, the AUC for gout flare prediction increased to 0.75. For patients with gout, remaining serum HDL-C level above 1.15 mmol/L may reduce the risk of gout flares.
