Association Between Triglyceride-Glucose Related Index and Endometriosis Varies According to Educational Level.
Article in Nutrients, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) level, its obesity-related derivatives, and the occurrence of endometriosis (EMS) remains ambiguous, particularly in individuals with higher levels of education. This study sought to explore the relationship between TyG, its obesity-related derivatives, and EMS across various educational backgrounds.
methodsThis study utilized a substantial dataset obtained from four cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 1999 and 2006. To explore the relationship between TyG, its obesity-related derivatives, and EMS, we employed a variety of analytical methods, including multivariable logistic regression models, smooth curve fitting, threshold effect analysis, and subgroup analysis, which were applied to participants with varying educational levels.
resultsAmong the 2347 participants, 203 (8.65%) were diagnosed with EMS. In the overall population, only the TyG, TyG-waist-to-height ratio (TyG-WHtR), and TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC) variables demonstrated a positive association with EMS. However, within the group with high educational attainment, TyG, TyG-WHtR, TyG-WC, and TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI) all exhibited positive correlations with EMS. These associations remained robust after adjustment for multiple potential confounding variables. The subgroup analysis demonstrated that these associations were consistent across different subgroups (
conclusionsOur study suggests that there is variation in the association between TyG and its obesity-related derivatives and EMS across different educational levels, warranting further investigation. In individuals with higher education, elevated levels of TyG and its obesity-related derivatives were associated with a higher prevalence of EMS. Conversely, this correlation was not observed among those with lower educational levels.
