Prognostic value of lipid variability for recurrence and mortality in elderly patients with acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo investigate the relationship between lipid variability and the risk of recurrence and mortality during the acute phase of ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICD) in elderly patients.
methodsClinical data, lipid profiles, and follow-up information were retrospectively collected from 149 elderly ICD patients who underwent at least three lipid measurements (non-baseline) at The Third People's Hospital of Hefei (The Third Clinical College of Anhui Medical University) from May 2021 to May 2024. Lipid indices included low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), and triglycerides (TG). Variability was assessed using standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), and variability independent of the mean (VIM). Follow-up concluded in May 2024. Patients were classified into no-recurrence, recurrence, and death groups. Logistic multivariate regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for recurrence and death. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were applied to assess the predictive value of lipid variability.
resultsVariabilities in LDL-C, HDL-C, TC, and TG were significantly higher in the recurrence and death groups compared to the no-recurrence group. Logistic regression analysis identified lipid variability indices as independent risk factors for recurrence and death. ROC analysis furtherdemonstrated their predictive value.
conclusionVariabilities in LDL-C, HDL-C, TC, and TG are independent risk factors for recurrence and death in elderly ICD patients. Combined analysis of lipid variability enhances diagnostic accuracy and may improve the prognostic assessment in this population.
