Relationships between atherogenic index of plasma and body mass index with the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus: insights from CHARLS.

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 complex relationship between obesity and dyslipidemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains an area of interest but is not fully understood. This study aimed to evaluate the intricate links between atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), body mass index (BMI), and T2DM risk.
methodsBased on data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, this analysis comprised 6754 individuals aged 45 and over, free of T2DM in 2011. BMI and AIP were the exposures, with T2DM incidence as the primary focus. Logistic regression models generated odds ratios (ORs), and a thorough decomposition of BMI's impact on T2DM revealed natural indirect and direct effects. The study also examined the complex interactions and combined effects of these two exposures.
resultsBy the end of 2018, 972 individuals were diagnosed with T2DM. The AIP played a significant association in the relationship between BMI and T2DM, explaining 21.7% and 18.9% of the association in different BMI ranges. A significant additive effect was observed between BMI and AIP, with a relative excess risk due to interaction of 0.62. BMI ≥ 24.0 kg/m
conclusionExposure to overweight/obesity or high AIP raises T2DM risk among Chinese ≥ 45 years, AIP partly mediates BMI-T2DM link.
