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

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disorder including simple steatosis and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Advanced stages of NASH result ultimately in fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocarcinoma. A diagnosis of NASH entails an increased risk of both liver-related and cardiovascular mortality as worsening of the metabolic syndrome. Because of its escalation, many investigations have been performed to elucidate the pathophysiologic origins of the disease progression. Human epidemiologic studies describing polymorphisms in a number of genes involved in metabolic dysfunctions have contributed to clarify the causes leading to the disease evolution. In this review, we attempt to outline critically the most recently identified genetic variants in NAFLD patients to identify possible risk factors promoting the progression of the disease. The evaluation of altered genotypes together with other clinical variables may facilitate the clinical management of these patients.
