Triglyceride affects the association between estimated glomerular filtration rate and the onset of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: A second analysis of a Chinese cohort study.

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
Objective: The role of triglyceride (TG) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) effect modifiers on the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is unknown. This study examined whether TG modifies the relationship between eGFR and incident NAFLD. Methods: In a Chinese hospital from January 2010 to December 2014, 15,555 non-obese subjects were collected systematically for this retrospective cohort study. The target-independent and dependent variables were eGFR measured at baseline and NAFLD appearing during follow-up. The modified variable was TG measured at baseline. The multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was used to explore eGFR and TG's association with NAFLD risk. We explored Results: The mean age was 43.09 ± 14.92 years, and 8,131 (52.27%) were males. During a median follow-up time of 35.8 months, 2,077 (13.35%) individuals developed NAFLD. In the adjusted model, eGFR was negatively associated with incident NAFLD (HR = 0.984, 95% CI: 0.982, 0.987), while TG was positively related to NAFLD (HR = 1.582, 95% CI: 1.490, 1.681). TG could modify the relationship between eGFR and incident NAFLD. A stronger association between eGFR and NAFLD could be found in the participants without hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) (HR = 0.981, 95% CI: 0.978-0.984, Conclusion: eGFR and TG is independently associated with NAFLD risk. The association of eGFR with incident NAFLD is likely to be modified by TG in the Chinese non-obese population. There was an interactive effect between eGFR and TG in affecting NAFLD risk. In participants with decreased eGFR and hypertriglyceridemia, the risk of NAFLD is significantly increased.
