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

aimUsing cross-sectional data from the 2009-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, the purpose of this study was to investigate the potential link between lipid accumulation product and gout/hyperuricemia.

methodsThe data from 10,871 individuals who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey spanning the years 2009-2018 were utilized for additional scrutiny. Participants self-reported gout and hyperuricemia as measured by laboratory test data, and other relevant variables and information for LAP were included. Multivariate logistic regression, restricted cubic spline and p-trend test were employed to determine the association between LAP and gout/hyperuricemia.

resultsThe study included 10,871 adults. The prevalence of hyperuricemia and gout was 20.9% and 5.57%, respectively. Compared with the first quartile, the fourth quartile of lipid accumulation product was associated with a 271% higher risk of hyperuricemia (OR = 3.711, 95% CI 2.732-5.042, p < 0.001) in a fully adjusted model. A similar association was found between continuous increase in lipid accumulation product and hyperuricemia (OR = 2.441, 95%CI = 1.348-4.42, p = 0.005), with p trends showing both < 0.001. The RCS model suggests a significant non-linear relationship between lipid accumulation product and the risk of gout/hyperuricemia. There was an inverted U-shaped relationship between lipid accumulation product and gout/hyperuricemia.

conclusionsThis study confirmed that lipid accumulation product has a high potential to predict the risk of gout/hyperuricemia. These findings suggested that the adjustment of the degree of fat accumulation may be a potential way to prevent and control the onset of gout/hyperuricemia.
