Association of obesity with chronic kidney disease in elderly patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

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/
aimsThis study investigated an association between obesity and impaired renal functions in elderly patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and evaluated the risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) in these patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional study was performed involving 515 elderly patients (≥ 60 years old) with NAFLD. Demographics, body mass index (BMI), medical history, and laboratory parameters were compared for groups stratified by obesity (≥ 28 kg/m2) or CKD. An association between obesity and CKD was analyzed, and a multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted for risk factors associated with CKD.
resultsIn the overall population, 28.7% were obese and 54.8% had CKD; there were more women (58.8%) than men. The prevalence of hypertension and diabetes was similar between the obese and nonobese groups and between the CKD and non-CKD groups. Obese patients had significantly higher levels of serum uric acid and estimated glomerular filtration rates when compared with the nonobese group. When compared with those without CKD, patients with CKD were significantly older in addition to having higher BMI and serum uric acid levels. The multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that CKD was positively associated with age, BMI, and serum uric acid levels.
conclusionElderly obese patients with NAFLD are at a higher risk of CKD. NAFLD patients with advanced age, greater BMI, or higher serum uric acid levels are more prone to developing CKD. The renal function of NAFLD patients should be closely monitored.
