Monocyte to High-Density Lipoprotein Ratio Is Associated With Carotid Plaque: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 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 level of monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR) is associated with cardiovascular diseases. Carotid plaque (CP) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. However, evidence for association of MHR with risk of CP is scarce. METHODS AND
resultsThis study involved 5260 participants aged >18 years old from the Dalian health management cohort in 2014 to 2022. The subjects were stratified into 4 groups based on the quartile of the MHR at baseline. Multivariable-adjusted Cox regression models were used to calculate the MHR-associated risk of incident CP. The mean age of the population was 46.14 years and 58.8% (n=3093) of the participants were male. Seven hundred fifty-nine (14.4%) of participants developed new-onset CP. During the follow-up of 9725 person-years, the MHR at quartile 4 group experienced a significantly higher incidence of CP than the MHR at quartile 1 group (56.9 versus 101.5 per 1000 person-years; log-rank
conclusionsElevated MHR was associated with the risk of CP. The assessment and management of MHR is helpful for the early detection of patients with CP and the primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
