Lipid and renal profile in assessing the severity of alcoholic liver disease.
Article in Bioinformation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Lipid and Renal dysfunction in Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) patients occurs either due to multi-organ involvement or secondary to alcoholism. This study was conducted to evaluate the role of lipid and renal parameters in assessing the severity of progression of ALD. Sixty cases of ALD (two groups based on compensated and decompensated features) and thirty healthy controls for comparison were included. Lipid profile (Total Cholesterol, LDL, HDL and Triglycerides) and renal parameters (serum urea, creatinine and uric acid), total and direct bilirubin, total protein and albumin were measured using automated chemistry analyzer. There was a significant decrease in Total cholesterol ,LDL and HDL levels and increased triglycerides when compared to controls (mean of 128.4 ± 59 vs 155 ± 27.2, 77 ± 44.3 vs 97.4 ± 27.2, 28.3 ± 18 vs 39.5 ± 14.1 and 115.8 ± 70.4 vs 91 ± 38 mg/dL respectively). Lipid profile showed a linear decrease while progressing from compensated to decompensated ALD. Renal parameters revealed a statistically significant decrease in serum urea ,increased creatinine and uric acid levels when compared to controls (17.57±2.96 vs23.73±4.94, 1.12±0.55 vs0.88±0.16,6.60±1.32 vs 4.68±1.40 mg/dL respectively).Total cholesterol and HDL showed a linear decrease when ALD progresses. Serum uric acid showed an early increase in compensated stage of ALD. This study inferred that Total cholesterol, TGL, HDL and uric acid can be used for assessing the severity of progression of ALD.
