Relationship between triglyceride glucose-body mass index and coronary artery calcium score in maintenance hemodialysis patients.

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: This study investigated the association between coronary artery calcification (CAC) and triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). Methods: We used computed tomography (CT) to assess coronary artery calcification score (CACS) using the Agatston method. The TyG index was multiplied by BMI to derive the TyG-BMI index. Ordinal logistic regression models were used to analyze the relationship between TyG-BMI and CAC. The dose-response relationship was evaluated using restricted cubic spline regression. Weighted Quantile Sum regression was used to explore the weight of the TyG-BMI index components. Results: Based on the TyG-BMI, 219 patients with MHD were stratified into three groups. The TyG-BMI index was shown to be an independent risk factor for CACS by multivariate ordinal logistic regression analysis (odds ratio, 1.011; [95% confidence interval, 1.002-1.021]; Conclusion: TyG-BMI and CAC were independently positively correlated in patients undergoing MHD. These findings suggest that assessing TyG-BMI as a valuable tool for identifying the risk of CAC in patients with MHD.
