Clinical Spectrum of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
Article in Turkish thoracic journal, 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in a group of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis study comprised 48 stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients who were diagnosed and categorized using the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease 2017 criteria. The prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients was determined using noninvasive biomarkers and imaging methods. Steatosis was detected using magnetic resonance mDIXON-Quant sequence imaging, while fibrosis was detected using the acoustic radiation force impulse and FIB-4 index.
resultsA total of 58.3% of the patients investigated had a fat level of 5%, and nearly a quarter of them had a fat content of 10% or more, and 45.8% of the patients studied had severe hepatic fibrosis. The Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index revealed advanced fibrosis in 18.75% of them. No statistically significant association was found between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease groups of studied patients and the presence of steatosis and fibrosis (≥F2) using acoustic radiation force impulse. The presence of fibrosis, however, was statistically significant linked with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease groups of examined patients using the FIB-4 index. γ-Glutamyl transferase and alkaline phosphatase levels were greater in Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease 3/4 and C/D groups.
conclusionNonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a common comorbidity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and should be included in the list of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease comorbidities.
