A preliminary report about the detection of ventricular repolarisation 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
objectivesNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multisystem disease which can affect the cardiovascular system as well. We conducted this study to determine the cardiac effects of NAFLD such as conduction of impulse and ventricular repolarisation on electrocardiography (ECG).
methodsIn this study, we recruited patients with risk factors for NAFLD (group I; n = 23) and NAFLD patients (group II; n = 74) from Shar Hospital in Sulaimani City, Iraq. We analysed anthropometric measurements, serum fasting lipid profile, glucose levels, liver enzymes, and ECG recordings.
resultsECG recordings showed significantly longer PR intervals, significantly shorter QTcB and JTc intervals, and a higher Tp-e/QTcB ratio in group II patients than in group I patients. These abnormalities were not associated with risk factors for diabetes. The TQ duration was significantly correlated with serum alanine aminotransferase (r = 0.411,
conclusionIn our study, the presence of significant abnormalities in ventricular repolarisation suggests that patients with newly diagnosed NAFLD have subclinical cardiac stress and a higher risk of ventricular arrhythmias.
