Evaluation of Pancreatic Steatosis in Patients with Celiac Disease.

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
BACKGROUND/
aimsCeliac disease, a chronic autoimmune disorder, has been reported to be associated with pancreatic involvement, including exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, pancreatitis, and cystic fibrosis. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to determine the frequency of pancreatic steatosis (PS) in patients with celiac disease and compare it with that in healthy controls. MATERIALS AND
methodsSixty patients with celiac disease and 60 healthy participants were included in this study. Biochemical and hematological parameters were collected from all participants. Hepatic steatosis (HS) and PS were diagnosed by ultrasonography and were compared between the groups.
resultsAge, gender, and body mass index were similar between the groups (P > .05). Pancreatic steatosis (81.7%) and HS (66.7%) were more prevalent in the celiac group compared to healthy controls (P < .001). A positive and significant correlation was found between PS and HS in the celiac group (rho = 0.464, P < .05). Hepatic steatosis and PS did not differ between tissue transglutaminase Immunoglobulin A (IgA)-positive and -negative patients with celiac disease (P > .05). No differences in HS or PS were found between celiac patients who adhered to a gluten-free diet and those who did not (P > .05).
conclusionCeliac disease may be associated with an increased risk of HS and PS. Cite this article as: Tarhan A, Gökden Y, Aydemir S, Önol S, Özek FZ. Evaluation of pancreatic steatosis in patients with celiac disease. Turk J Gastroenterol. 2026;37(2):233-241.
