Fatty liver index in young adult offspring of women with type 1 diabetes.
Article in Diabetology & metabolic syndrome, 2023. 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
backgroundExposure to a hyperglycemic environment during prenatal life may result in an unfavorable metabolic profile later in adulthood. We aimed to assess whether fatty liver index, a non-invasive indicator of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease risk, differs in young adult offspring of women with type 1 diabetes from offspring of women without diabetes.
methodsThis cohort study was conducted within the hospital district of Helsinki and Uusimaa, Finland. Between 1996 and 2000, we identified 238 singleton offspring of women with type 1 diabetes, born at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Helsinki University Hospital, Helsinki, Finland. From the Finnish Medical Birth Register, we identified 476 singleton age- and region-matched offspring of women without diabetes. At 18-23 years of age, 70 offspring of women with type 1 diabetes and 83 offspring of women without diabetes participated in a clinical study, including laboratory tests, clinical assessments, and self-reported questionnaires. The noninvasive fatty liver index was used to estimate nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
resultsFatty liver index (FLI) was similar between offspring of women with type 1 diabetes and offspring of women without diabetes (p = 0.59). Additionally, no differences between the groups could be observed for FLI ≥ 60, i.e., to cut-off value for NAFLD. Likewise, we could not find any statistically significant differences between young adult offspring of women with type 1 diabetes (20.4 years [SD 1.6]) and young adult offspring of women without diabetes (20.6 years [SD 1.6]) regarding metabolic characteristics: BMI 24.5 kg/m
conclusionsOur results suggest that fatty liver index is not elevated in young adult offspring of women with type 1 diabetes. Further research on whether pregestational type 1 diabetes in pregnancy affects offspring's nonalcoholic fatty liver disease risk is warranted.
