Lipid metabolism disorders and osteoarthritis: New evidence from multiple studies.
Article in Medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In this study, a cross-sectional study and two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) method were used to comprehensively investigate the relationship between plasma lipids and various types of osteoarthritis (OA). In this study, lipid data from 12,773 subjects obtained from NHANES were used to define atherogenic coefficient (AC) and atherogenic index of plasma indices and explore their association with the risk of developing OA. The causal relationship between plasma lipidome and OA was subsequently explored using a TSMR and Bayesian weighted Mendelian randomization analysis approach, and assessing the stability of results using multiple sensitivity analyses. The crude model in the multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed a negative association between AC scores and OA incidence (odds ratio = 0.91; 95% confidence interval, 0.87-0.95, P < .05). By smoothing curve fitting, a negative correlation was identified among AC, the atherogenic index of plasma index, and OA in the study. After screening by TSMR, Bayesian weighted Mendelian randomization, and sensitivity analyses, 10, 20, 9, 4, 4, 4, 1, 3, 7, 12, and 8 plasma lipids were present with alloa, hipoa, kneeoa, hipkneeoa, handoa, spineoa, thumboa, fingeroa, total hip replacement, total joint replacement, and total knee replacement, respectively, causal associations. Our study reaffirms the strong association between the pathogenesis of OA and plasma lipid abnormalities, which provides additional insights into future strategies to prevent and treat OA.
