Treatment of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in adults and children: a closer look at the arsenal.
Review in Journal of gastroenterology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease encompasses a spectrum of disease from asymptomatic steatosis, with or without elevated aminotransferases, to cirrhosis with relative complications and hepatocellular carcinoma. Owing to the increasing prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and the potential for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis to progress to cirrhosis and liver-related mortality, more research has been focused on therapy of this important liver disease over the last two decades. To date, weight loss and physical activity represent the cornerstone of treatment, with interventions being limited to subjects at risk of disease progression, but the type of treatment remains a matter of debate. A few medications have shown promising results in preliminary pilot studies, but few agents have been tested rigorously. Today, multiple therapeutic approaches are considered the way to go in treating nonalcoholic steatohepatitis patients. In this paper we review the status of current and emerging therapeutic strategies for children and adult patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
