Prognostic Significance of Controlled Attenuation Parameter in Patients With Compensated Advanced Chronic Liver Disease.
Article in Hepatology communications, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Obesity and steatosis have been associated with liver disease progression in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) (liver stiffness measurement [LSM] ≥ 10 kPa). The controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) estimates steatosis during LSM by transient elastography. We aimed to evaluate whether CAP is associated with the development of clinically relevant events in cACLD. Consecutive patients with cACLD and CAP measurements observed between September 2013 and September 2015 were retrospectively studied. Classical decompensation and severe bacterial infections on follow-up were recorded. A predefined CAP cut-off for steatosis was used (220 dB/m; 90% sensitivity). The association among LSM, CAP, and events was assessed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression. Among the 193 patients (viral etiology = 58%; median Child score = 5; LSM = 15.1 kPa; CAP = 255 ± 62 dB/m) who were followed up in median for 18 months, 18 developed clinically relevant events (11 liver decompensation, 7 severe bacterial infections). Patients developing events had higher LSM (median: 30.8 versus 14.3 kPa,
