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: Perivascular spaces (PVS) are critical for waste clearance in the central nervous system and are implicated in various neurological disorders. The uric acid to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (UHR) is a novel inflammatory-metabolic marker, but its association with PVS burden remains unexplored. This study investigated the association between UHR and moderate-to-severe PVS burden. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis was conducted on 808 patients between 2022 and 2024. UHR levels were calculated and categorized into quartiles. PVS burdens in the basal ganglia and centrum semiovale regions were assessed. Logistic regression, correlation, subgroup, and restricted cubic splines analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship between UHR and PVS burden. The net reclassification index (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were calculated. Additionally, sensitivity analyses were performed to validate the robustness of the findings. Results: UHR was significantly higher in patients with moderate-to-severe PVS burden compared to those with none-to-mild PVS burden ( Conclusion: Our findings indicate a significant association between UHR levels and moderate-to-severe PVS burden, demonstrating potential implications for PVS risk assessment and management.
