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

Non-alcoholic faty liver disease (NAFLD) and liver fibrosis score (FIB 4) are associated with increased mortality from cardiovascular causes. NAFLD and cardiac diseases are different manifestations of systemic metabolic syndrome. In this study, we aimed to reveal the relationship between NAFLD and FIB 4 liver fibrosis scores and mitral annular calcification (MAC). One hundred patients were included in the study. Blood samples and echocardiography measurements were obtained from each subject. The two groups were compared in terms of demographic and echocardiographic characteristics. Thirty-one men and 69 women with a mean age of 48.6 ± 13.1 years were included in the analysis. The patients were divided into two groups as those with MAC (n = 26) and those without (n = 74). The baseline demographic and laboratory data for the two groups were compared. In the group with MAC (+) age, serum creatinine levels, FIB4 and NAFLD Scores; HL, DM rates, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and statin usage rates were higher, with statistical significance. NAFLD and FIB 4 liver fibrosis scores have an independent relationship with MAC.
