The Circadian Rhythm Regulates the Hepato-ovarian Axis Linking Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.
Article in Biochemical genetics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
This study aimed to identify shared gene expression related to circadian rhythm disruption in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to discover common diagnostic biomarkers. Visceral fat RNA samples were collected from 12 PCOS and 14 non-PCOS patients, a sample size representing the clinical situation and sufficient to capture PCOS gene expression profiles. Along with liver transcriptome profiles from NAFLD patients, these data were analyzed to identify crosstalk circadian rhythm-related genes (CRRGs) between the diseases. Single-sample and single-gene gene set enrichment analyses explored immune infiltration and pathways associated with CRRGs. Diagnostic biomarkers were identified using a random forest algorithm and validated through nomograms and a mouse model. Seven crosstalk CRRGs (FOS, ACHE, FOSB, EGR1, NR4A1, DUSP1, and EGR3) were associated with clinical features, immunoinflammatory microenvironment, and metabolic pathways in both diseases. EGR1, DUSP1, and NR4A1 were identified as diagnostic biomarkers, exhibiting robust diagnostic capacity (AUC = 0.7679 for PCOS, AUG = 0.9981 for NAFLD). Nomogram validation showed excellent calibration, and independent datasets confirmed their discriminatory ability (AUC = 0.6528 for PCOS, AUC = 0.8275 for NAFLD). Additionally, ceRNA networks and androgen receptor binding sites were identified, suggesting their regulatory roles. Mouse model validation confirmed significant downregulation of EGR1, DUSP1, and NR4A1 in liver tissues, consistent with sequencing data. This study identifies crosstalk CRRGs and diagnostic biomarkers shared between PCOS and NAFLD, highlighting their roles in immune and metabolic dysregulation. These biomarkers offer the potential for improving diagnosis and guiding targeted treatments for both diseases.
