Clinical Usefulness of Non-Invasive Metabolic-Associated Fatty Liver Disease Risk Assessment Methods in Patients with Full-Blown Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Relation to the MRI Examination with the Ideal IQ Sequence.
Article in Biomedicines, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The coexistence of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and liver steatosis has been studied for years. The gold standards for the diagnosis of liver steatosis are liver biopsy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which are invasive and expensive methods. The main aim of this study is to check the usefulness of lipid accumulation product (LAP) and free androgen index (FAI) in the diagnosis of liver steatosis. The Ideal IQ MRI was performed in 49 women with PCOS phenotype A to assess the degree of liver steatosis, which was expressed with the proton density fat fraction (PDFF). Anthropometric examination and laboratory tests were performed, and the LAP and FAI were calculated. The correlation between MRI results and LAP, FAI, and one of the FAI components, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), was checked using statistical tests. There is a statistically significant correlation between PDFF and LAP and also between PDFF and FAI. LAP = 70.25 and FAI = 5.05 were established as cut-offs to diagnose liver steatosis. The SHBG is not a statistically significant parameter to predict liver steatosis. The study showed that especially LAP, but also FAI, can be used to predict liver steatosis with high specificity and sensitivity.
