Association between diabetes and in-hospital outcomes in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease hospitalized for cardiovascular disease: A nationwide database study.
Article in Diabetic medicine : a journal of the British Diabetic Association, 2026. 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
aimsTo evaluate the impact of diabetes on in-hospital outcomes among patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) who were hospitalized for cardiovascular disease (CVD).
methodsWe conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study using data from the nationwide Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Diseases-Diagnosis Procedure Combination, from April 2012 to March 2023. A total of 10,614 patients with MASLD hospitalized for CVD were identified, of whom 4550 (42.9%) had diabetes. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, and secondary outcomes were major cardiac and non-cardiac complications.
resultsThe median age was 66 years, and 66.9% were male. Compared with patients without diabetes, those with diabetes had higher rates of ischaemic heart disease (35.5% vs. 30.8%), acute coronary syndrome (18.8% vs. 16.9%) and heart failure (27.3% vs. 25.4%) (all p < 0.05). In-hospital mortality (5.6% vs. 3.3%; p < 0.001) and overall complication rates (23.6% vs. 19.7%; p < 0.001) were significantly greater in the diabetes group, driven mainly by cardiac events (16.8% vs. 10.5%; p < 0.001). Multivariable logistic regression confirmed diabetes as an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality (odds ratio, 1.99; 95% confidence interval, 1.60-2.47; p < 0.001).
conclusionsDiabetes was associated with higher in-hospital mortality and complication rates among patients with MASLD hospitalized for CVD. Stratification of MASLD by metabolic phenotype, particularly in the presence of diabetes, may help improve risk assessment and inform more personalized clinical management in this population.
