Association of non-conventional lipid-inflammatory parameters with incident hypertension risk: a prospective cohort study.
Article in Journal of global health, 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
Background: Emerging research has associated non-conventional lipid indices with hypertension risk; however, the joint contribution of these lipid metrics and inflammatory biomarkers to hypertension susceptibility remains unclear. Using a nationally representative cohort, we aimed to examine the independent associations of non-conventional lipid indices and their inflammatory composites with incident hypertension. Methods: We included 6891 participants from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (2011-2020). We used multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression to assess the association between baseline and cumulative non-conventional lipid-inflammatory parameters and incident hypertension. We used restricted cubic spline modelling to characterise dose-response relationships. We evaluated receiver operating characteristic curves, net reclassification improvement, and integrated discrimination improvement as secondary conditional analyses. Results: Over a median follow-up of 7.79 years, 2532 incident hypertension cases occurred. Higher tertiles of non-conventional lipid indices were associated with progressively increased hypertension risk. In the primary model, elevated baseline and cumulative non-conventional lipid metrics were associated with a higher risk of hypertension across all composite indices. The lipoprotein combine index-C-reactive protein showed the largest effect size (hazard ratio = 1.59; 95% confidence interval = 1.44-1.75). Composite indices demonstrated modest incremental discrimination over individual measures (area under the curve range = 0.55-0.58). Conclusions: Non-conventional lipid indices are independently associated with incident hypertension among middle-aged and older Chinese adults. Composite lipid-inflammatory markers provide modest incremental prognostic information beyond conventional lipids, though their standalone discriminatory performance is weak.
