Factors related to the presence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in patients with type 2 diabetes: a single center 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
Aim of the study: There is a close relationship between the development of diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The aim of the study was to determine the frequency and associated factors of NAFLD in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients according to the ultrasound examination and noninvasive hepatic fibrosis indices. Material and methods: 316 patients who were followed up in the Internal Medicine Diabetes clinic, over the age of 18, diagnosed with T2DM were included retrospectively. NAFLD was noted using ultrasound. NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS), fibrosis-4 index (FIB-4) and AST to platelet ratio index (APRI) were used as non-invasive hepatic fibrosis indices. Results: The prevalence of NAFLD with hepatic ultrasound was 89.7% in T2DM patients. Among non-invasive fibrosis indices, NFS and FIB-4 were similar, but APRI was significantly higher in moderate-severe hepatosteatosis group ( Conclusions: The prevalence of NAFLD is high in patients with T2DM. The frequency and degree of NAFLD is associated with the NFS, BMI and hypertriglyceridemia. While NFS is associated with mild hepatosteatosis; moderate to severe hepatosteatosis is associated with BMI and serum triglycerides.
