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 steatohepatitis (NASH) is the progressive phenotype of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease associated with the metabolic syndrome. The existence of autoimmune features in NASH has been reported, but its significance remains unclear. We herein report the autoantibody profile of 54 patients with histologically proven NASH and further determined the development of autoimmunity in three different murine NASH models (monosodium glutamate, CDAA (choline-deficient L-amino acid-defined), and TSOD (Tsumura Suzuki, Obese Diabetes)) at 48 weeks of age. Forty-eight percent (26/54) of NASH cases were positive for antinuclear (ANA) or antimitochondrial antibody and manifested histological signs of overlap with autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cirrhosis, respectively. These patients were significantly older (60 ± 10 versus 50 ± 16 years), more frequently women (81 % versus 43 %), and with more severe portal inflammatory infiltrate compared with patients without autoimmunity. In one third of mice, regardless of the model, we observed a marked lymphoid infiltrate with non-suppurative cholangitis, and several cases were ANA-positive, but none AMA-positive. Our data suggest that autoimmunity may share some pathogenetic traits with the chronic inflammation of NASH, possibly related to advanced age.
