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

backgroundInsulin resistance (IR)-related indices and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) were independent predictors for cardiometabolic disease (CMD) and multimorbidity (CMM), but their combined effect is unclear. We aimed to investigate their joint effect on incident CMD and CMM.

methodsThis study was conducted from the UK Biobank accelerometer sub-study. The IR-related indices included triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), TyG-waist-to-height ratio (TyG-WHtR), and metabolic score for IR (Mets-IR). Participants were divided according to the median values of IR-related indices and MVPA time. Cox regression was used to assess the associations between different groups and outcomes, with interaction effects estimated.

results74,367 participants were included. Compared to participants with low TyG index and high MVPA, the adjusted HR (aHR) for CMD was 1.71 (95% CI: 1.55-1.88) for high TyG and low MVPA. The corresponding aHR were 1.82 (95%CI: 1.66-1.99) for TyG-BMI, 1.96 (95%CI: 1.77-2.17) for TyG-WC, 1.88 (95%CI: 1.71-2.07) for TyG-WHtR, and 1.90 (95%CI: 1.73-2.09) for Mets-IR, with significant additive interactions. Similar associations were observed in incident CMM.

conclusionsIR-related indices and MVPA had synergistic effects in incident CMD and CMM, highlighting the importance of identification and prevention for CMD and CMM.
