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

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with risks for developing colorectal adenoma. This study aimed to evaluate the association between advanced fibrosis in NAFLD and the risk for colorectal adenoma.We retrospectively analyzed the data of 6332 adults who underwent abdominal ultrasound and 1st-time colonoscopy on the same day in a health screening program at a single center. We evaluated the presence of advanced fibrosis in NAFLD using various noninvasive score, which also analyzed the detection rate of colorectal adenoma according to the presence of advanced fibrosis in NAFLD.The subjects with NAFLD had a higher prevalence of colorectal adenoma. In the multivariate analysis, NAFLD was an independent risk factor for colorectal adenoma (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 1.15; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.30), advanced adenoma (adjusted OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.12-2.01), and multiple adenomas (adjusted OR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.01-1.73). When NAFLD was further stratified based on the stage of fibrosis using the noninvasive score models, the subjects with NAFLD and advanced fibrosis had a significantly higher risk for colorectal adenoma, advanced adenoma, and multiple adenomas than those with NAFLD without advanced fibrosis.NAFLD with advanced fibrosis might be risk factor for colorectal adenoma compared with NAFLD without advanced fibrosis.
