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

objectivesMetabolic syndrome (MetS) is a major public health concern that poses a significant threat to human health. Investigating its underlying mechanisms and identifying potential intervention targets has important clinical implications. This study aims to explore the association between serum gastric biomarkers and MetS and its components.

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among 24 635 individuals (aged 18 to 80 years) who underwent routine health examinations from May 2017 to June 2021 at the Health Management Medical Center, Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University. Demographic data, medical and medication history, height, weight, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and creatinine levels were collected. Serum levels of pepsinogen (PG) I, PGII, and gastrin-17 (G-17) were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. MetS was diagnosed based on the International Diabetes Federation criteria. Logistic regression was used to assess the association between gastric biomarkers and MetS.

resultsAmong the 24 635 participants, the overall prevalence of MetS was 35.72%, with a higher rate in males than in females (42.41% vs 24.31%). Compared with the non-MetS group, MetS group were older and had higher metabolic-related diseases rate,

conclusionsSerum G-17 level is positively associated with both the presence and severity of MetS, with a more pronounced correlation in males, suggesting its potential involvement in MetS-related metabolic dysregulation.
