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

backgroundAdipose differentiation-related protein (ADRP) is an adipokine.

methodsCross-sectional design. A total of 142 patients with T2DM were assigned to NAFLD (Group-I) and non-NAFLD (Group-II). Anthropometric data were collected. Serum ADRP levels and biochemical parameters were also determined.

resultsThe serum ADRP level was higher in Group-I than in Group-II. Further, binary logistic regression models demonstrated that ADRP was an independent risk factor related to NAFLD in patients with T2DM. Moreover, as the ADRP level elevated across its tertiles, the percentage of NAFLD in T2DM increased. Multivariate logistic regression models demonstrated that the odds ratio of NAFLD was 8.831 in the highest tertile of ADRP, after adjustment for potential confounders. Area under THE ROC curve of ADRP for predicting the presence of NAFLD in T2DM was 0.738. Finally, multiple stepwise regression analysis indicated that age, waist circumference (WC), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and triglyceride (TG) were independent factors associated with ADRP levels.

conclusionHigh serum ADRP level may be used as an independent risk factor for NAFLD in T2DM. The expression of ADRP may be affected by age, WC, HOMA-IR and TG.
