1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 and Aim: This study aims to assess the potential association between NHHR and gout risk among the US adult population. Methods and Results: Utilizing data from the NHANES spanning from 2007 to 2018, we performed a cross-sectional analysis. A weighted multivariable logistic regression model, generalized additive model (GAM) and a restricted cubic spline model were applied to elucidate the association between NHHR and gout risk. In addition, subgroup and sensitivity analyses were conducted to ensure the stability of our findings. This study cohort included 27,731 participants. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated a significant correlation between NHHR and the likelihood of gout. This association was sustained after accounting for a range of potential confounding confounders. The risk of gout was observed to escalate with increasing quartiles of NHHR quartiles, with a 67% increased risk in the fourth quartile. Both RCS and curve fitting results indicated a J-shaped relationship between NHHR and gout. The association remained significant in several subgroup analyses. The interaction test did not yield statistically significant effects on this association. Conclusion: The NHHR is nonlinearly correlated with the risk of gout in US adults. Further investigation research into the role of NHHR in gout could offer new perspectives on the prevention and treatment of gout. However, additional large-scale prospective studies are necessary to validate and reinforce these results.
