Triglyceride is strongly associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease among markers of hyperlipidemia and diabetes.
Article in Biomedical reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 68 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 aim of the present study was to reveal the metabolic disorders most commonly associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), blood glucose (BG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) were analyzed. NAFLD was diagnosed using abdominal ultrasound (US), and TG, HDL, LDL, BG and HbA1c were immediately collected on the same day and subjected to multivariate regression analysis. Stepwise analysis was performed to select the variables that were closely associated with NAFLD. The patients who were positive for the hepatitis B antigen and hepatitis C antibody were excluded from the study. Additionally, the patients who were prescribed prednisolone or methotrexate were excluded from the study as these agents may cause NAFLD or liver toxicity. The study included 168 and 125 patients with and without NAFLD, respectively. TG, BG and HbA1c were strongly correlated with NAFLD. Among these parameters, TG was the strongest predictor of NAFLD (χ
