Correlation Between Blood Glucose Level and Cerebral Small Vessel Disease Markers in Neurologically Asymptomatic, Nondiabetic Individuals.
Article in Aging medicine (Milton (N.S.W)), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objectives: Cerebral small vascular disease (CSVD) is not rare in neurologically asymptomatic individuals. Glucose control and insulin resistance (IR) may be its risk factors. We aimed to explore the relationship between CSVD markers, glucose control, and IR in neurologically asymptomatic, nondiabetic individuals. Methods: A total of 412 participants from the annual physical examinations population in our hospital who underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging from May 2019 to June 2021 were enrolled. We collected clinical data and blood test indices and calculated the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index. CSVD markers were assessed, including lacunes, white matter hyperintensities (WMH), enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS), cerebral microbleeds (CMBs), and the total CSVD score. Correlations between CSVD markers, clinical variables, and blood test parameters were analyzed. Results: The median age of our group was 70.32 ± 10.27 years (45-103 years). The prevalence of asymptomatic CSVD was 43.7%. Lacunes were present in 8.3%, periventricular WMH (PVWMH) in 65.3%, deep WMH (DWMH) in 64.1%, EPVS in 87.4%, and CMBs in 31.3% of individuals. Glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) varied between PVWMH subgroups ( Conclusions: The prevalence of neurologically asymptomatic CSVD is common in the nondiabetic population. It may be beneficial for middle-aged and elderly people to pay attention to their blood glucose levels.
