The predictive value of the hepatorenal index for detection of impaired glucose metabolism in patients with non-alcoholic 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/purposeNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients are at increased risk of liver-related as well as cardiovascular mortality, including diabetes, coronary heart disease, and stroke, independently of traditional cardiovascular risk factors and metabolic syndrome. The aim of this study was to find out the predictive impact of hepatorenal index (HRI) in the detection of impaired glucose metabolism in asymptomatic NAFLD patients.
methodsB-mode ultrasound examinations were performed and ultrasound images from all 89 NAFLD patients aged 50.8 ± 10.1 years were analyzed by echogenicity analyzing software and HRI was acquired, and appropriate laboratory tests for liver, glucose, and lipid metabolism were undertaken.
resultsThe mean HRI was 1.345 ± 0.189. 23.59% of patients had mild NAFLD (HRI = 1.167 ± 0.041), 64.04% moderate (HRI = 1.401 ± 0.102), and 12.36% patients severe NAFLD (HRI = 1.802 ± 0.098). Impaired glucose metabolism was present in 48.31% of patients. A positive correlation was present between HRI and impaired glucose metabolism (r = 0.335, p = 0.001). The coefficients of determinations R
conclusionUltrasonographically acquired HRI has a significant predictive impact on the detection of prediabetes and diabetes in patients with NAFLD.
