Predictive value of triglyceride-glucose index and sex hormone-binding globulin in diabetic retinopathy.

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
aimTo investigate the levels of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with diabetic retinopathy (DR), and to explore their correlations with biochemical parameters and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in DR patients.
methodsPatients with T2DM and healthy individuals were enrolled. Age and body mass index (BMI) of the participants were collected, TyG of the subjects was calculated using the formula, SHBG level of the subjects was detected, and blood biochemical indexes were measured at the same time. The changes of each index among the groups were statistically analyzed, and the relationship between TyG, SHBG, DR and each index was analyzed.
resultsA total of 150 patients with T2DM and 64 healthy individuals as normal controls (NC, 28 males and 36 females, mean age 54.49±10.10y) were enrolled following ophthalmic evaluation. Patients were categorized into non-DR group (42 males and 36 females, mean age 56.68±8.02y) and DR group (35 males and 37 females, mean age, 53.83±11.10y). TyG levels were significantly elevated in both non-DR (7.25±0.62) and DR groups (8.02±0.82) compared to controls (6.85±0.48), with the DR group demonstrating higher TyG values than the non-DR group (
conclusionElevated TyG index, reduces SHBG levels, and their negative correlation in the DR group suggest potential roles of TyG and SHBG in the pathogenesis and progression of DR. Combined assessment of SHBG and TyG may provide valuable insights for DR prediction and diagnosis.
