Interaction between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and obesity on the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundsThis investigation seeks to explore the correlation between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and to to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of CVDs.
methodsThis study utilized data from the Jinchang cohort platform, including 19,399 participants without pre-existing major CVDs. Based on the general population and gender stratification, Cox models were used to analyze the risk of NAFLD for CVDs. The combined effect of NAFLD and different obesity indicators on CVDs was analyzed by additive and multiplicative interaction models and subgroups.
resultsThere were 3129 NAFLD patients out of 19399 subjects, and 723 (23.11%) of them had the CVD. After adjusting for multiple confounding factors, the Cox model revealed a 1.17-fold increase in the risk of CVDs among patients with NAFLD compared to those without NAFLD. Moreover, there was no notable disparity in CVDs risk among most NAFLD patients at the same level of obesity. The results indicated no additive interaction between NAFLD and obesity concerning CVDs risk, but rather a positive multiplicative interaction. Using the normal population as a reference, it was found that people with both obesity and NAFLD significantly increased the risk of developing CVDs, with HRs and 95% CIs of 1.790 (1.508, 2.126), 1.356 (1.213, 1.517), and 1.807 (1.503, 2.174), respectively, for BMI, WC, and the combination of BMI and WC.
conclusionsNAFLD and obesity are independent risk factors for CVDs. The synergy of obesity and NAFLD implies that NAFLD patients should control weight gain. Larger BMI and WC values may increase the CVDs risk for NAFLD patients, especially women.
