Uric acid and uric acid/creatinine ratio are associated with GDM in women undergoing IVF/ICSI.

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
Introduction: With ongoing global lifestyle changes and economic development, the prevalence of hyperuricemia has steadily increased. Elevated levels of serum uric acid (SUA) have been linked to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM); however, this relationship has not yet been specifically evaluated in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between pre-pregnancy SUA as well as SUA to serum creatinine (SCr) ratio and GDM in women undergoing ART. Methods: This retrospective cohort study was carried out at the Reproductive and Genetic Hospital of CITIC-Xiangya in Changsha, Hunan, China, and included 1027 women who underwent their first ART treatment between 2017 and 2018. SUA levels were measured during the baseline visit prior to any ART procedures, and GDM incidence was recorded based on screening results from the oral glucose tolerance test. Results: GDM was diagnosed in 172 (16.7%) of the 1027 patients. When comparing SUA quintiles, significant differences were observed in GDM incidence, and several other parameters (including pre-pregnancy weight, BMI, blood glucose, blood pressure, SCr, lipid parameters, anti-Müllarian Hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, and testosterone). SUA was independently associated with GDM incidence after adjusting for potential confounding factors in multivariate analysis (OR 1.004, Conclusion: Pre-pregnancy SUA levels - and particularly the SUA/SCr ratio - were significantly associated with GDM among women undergoing ART.
