Association Between Serum Uric Acid Levels and Metabolic-Associated Fatty Liver Disease in Southeast China: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Diabetes, metabolic syndrome and obesity : targets and therapy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Objective: This study aimed to explore the association between serum uric acid (sUA) levels and metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in Southeast China. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study of 2605 subjects who underwent physical examination between 2015 and 2017 in Southeast China. To explore the association between sUA levels and the risk of MAFLD, we employed logistic regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS), subgroups and multiplicative interaction analysis. Results: Logistic regression analysis showed a positive association between sUA and MAFLD [ Conclusion: According to our study, sUA was positively associated with the risk of MAFLD. Additionally, the risk of MAFLD increased significantly when sUA levels exceeded 5.56 mg/dL. Our study may help clarify whether sUA plays a diagnostic role in MAFLD.
