Association between mean platelet volume and adiponectin in patients with metabolic syndrome.
Article in Journal of applied biomedicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundMetabolic syndrome is a significant pro-inflammatory and pro-coagulant condition. The clinical association of adiponectin, a mainly antidiabetogenic molecule, and its interaction with platelets and platelet indices remains insufficiently investigated.
objectiveThe aim of our study was to investigate the association of adiponectin with platelets and platelet indices in patients with metabolic syndrome.
methodsThe investigation was conducted as a cross-sectional study involving 113 subjects: 63 patients with the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome, and 50 healthy controls - with clear inclusion and exclusion criteria. The group of patients with metabolic syndrome was divided into two subgroups according to the platelet/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) ratio.
resultsThe subgroup with a higher platelet/HDL ratio was prediabetic. In the same subgroup of patients, a positive correlation between the adiponectin and mean platelet volume (MPV) was seen, while linear regression (95% CI) confirmed the association.
conclusionConsidering that MPV is the index that indicates average platelet volume and activity, we believe this association with adiponectin can represent a protective compensatory response in patients with metabolic syndrome and prediabetes. Our results provide a basis for a more precise selection of patients in whom the future therapeutic application of recombinant adiponectin would be most effective.
