The association between blood lipid levels and the risk of atrophic gastritis: a cross-sectional study of the Wuwei cohort.

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
Background: Aberrant lipid profiles have been associated with several chronic diseases; however, their relationship with atrophic gastritis remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the association between serum lipid levels and the prevalence of chronic atrophic gastritis among participants from the Wuwei cohort. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 5,194 participants from the Wuwei cohort, including individuals with pathologically confirmed chronic atrophic gastritis and individuals with normal gastric mucosa. Serum lipid parameters, including total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, were assessed. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for prevalent chronic atrophic gastritis were estimated using binary logistic regression models. Results: In Model 1, elevated total cholesterol was identified as a risk factor for the development of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.07 (95% CI = 1.01-1.14). Similarly, elevated LDL was associated with an increased risk of atrophic gastritis, with an OR of 1.20 (95% CI = 1.10-1.32) compared to the group without CAG. These associations remained significant in Model 2, with odds ratios of 1.10 (95% CI = 1.03-1.17) for total cholesterol and 1.21 (95% CI = 1.10-1.34) for LDL. Conclusion: In this cross-sectional study, higher total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels were associated with greater odds of prevalent chronic atrophic gastritis.
