1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), one of the commonest causes of chronic liver disease in the United States, represents several overlapping clinicopathological states, ranging from simple steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Although dysregulated lipid accumulation occurs across the spectrum of NAFLD, features of liver cell injury, such as hepatocyte ballooning, cytoskeletal changes (Mallory-Denk bodies), and hepatocyte apoptosis, occur predominantly in NASH and distinguish NASH from simple steatosis. Indeed, NASH is a more serious form of liver damage because cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma are potential outcomes of NASH. Meanwhile, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma rarely occur in individuals with simple steatosis. Hepatic injury and apoptosis that occur in adults are often dysregulated and accompanied by the accumulation of immune cells, which produce cytokines and growth factors that drive chronic inflammation and may result in fibrosis. This article summarizes the process of apoptosis and roles of putative cytokines in progressive NAFLD.
