The association between helicobacter pylori infection and Triglyceride-Glucose (TyG) index in US adults: A retrospective cross-sectional study.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThe Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a marker for insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, while Helicobacter pylori is linked to gastrointestinal diseases and may affect metabolic risks. This study examined the association between the TyG index and H. pylori infection in adults.
methodsData from 3797 participants in the NHANES 1999-2000 cycle were analyzed. The relationship between the TyG index and H. pylori infection was assessed using multivariate logistic regression and a two-piecewise logistic model to explore non-linear effects. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on age, sex, glucose levels, BMI, and CKD.
resultsA linear association between the TyG index and H. pylori infection was found. Subgroup analyses revealed significant interactions with a few variables.
conclusionsThis study indicates a linear relationship between the TyG index and H. pylori infection, suggesting metabolic influences on H. pylori infection and potential for targeted interventions in at-risk groups.
