Current and novel therapies for the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
Article in Hepatology international, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The worldwide epidemic of obesity and the metabolic syndrome has made nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), one of the most important liver diseases of our time. NAFLD is now the commonest cause of abnormal liver test results in industrialized countries and its incidence is rising. The current treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) has focused on lifestyle modification to achieve weight loss and modification of risk factors, such as insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hyperglycemia associated with the metabolic syndrome. With our increasing understanding of the pathogenesis of NASH, have come a plethora of new pharmacologic options with great potential to modify the natural history of NAFLD and NASH. This article focuses on a number of novel molecular targets for the treatment of NASH as well as the evidence for currently available therapy. It should be noted, however, that in part because of the long natural history of NASH and NAFLD, no therapy to date has been shown to unequivocally alter liver-related morbidity and mortality in these patients.
