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

Objective: This cross-sectional study investigates the relationship between systemic markers of lipid homeostasis, inflammation, and atherosclerosis index (AI) in patients with both type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease (CHD), stratified by their glycemic control status. Methods: A total of 120 patients with type 2 diabetes and CHD were included and stratified into a Good Glycemic Control group (GGC, HbA1c<7%, n=72) and a Poor Glycemic Control group (PGC, HbA1c≥7%, n=48). AI was assessed using brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), and coronary stenosis was evaluated angiographically. Blood lipids, glucose metabolism indicators (Fasting Plasma Glucose [FPG], Fasting Insulin [FINS], HOMA-IR), and serum inflammatory markers (TNF-α, IL-1β, hs-CRP) were quantified. Pearson correlation and logistic regression analyses were used to assess associations and identify risk factors for AI. Results: The PGC group exhibited significantly higher AI and coronary stenosis scores, a more atherogenic lipid profile (higher TC, TG, LDL-C; lower HDL-C), and elevated HOMA-IR and inflammatory markers compared to the GGC group (all P<0.05). Baseline characteristics and medication use were similar, except for higher insulin use in the PGC group. Pearson analysis revealed that AI was positively correlated with hs-CRP, TG, coronary stenosis scores, and HOMA-IR (all P<0.05). Logistic regression identified hs-CRP, TG, coronary stenosis score, and HOMA-IR as independent risk factors for increased AI. Conclusion: In patients with type 2 diabetes and CHD, poor glycemic control is strongly associated with increased arterial stiffness, dyslipidemia, systemic inflammation, and insulin resistance. These findings highlight the critical, intertwined roles of these pathways in atherosclerosis and underscore the necessity of a multifactorial approach to cardiovascular risk management in this high-risk population.
