Correlation Between Anthropometric Measurements and Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Individuals With Obesity Undergoing Bariatric Surgery: Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundWe hypothesize that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) may be significantly associated with waist circumference (WC), neck circumference (NC), hip circumference (HC), and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR).
objectivesTo analyze correlations between anthropometric parameters and the occurrence and intensity of NAFLD aspects assessed by histopathological examination in individuals undergoing bariatric surgery.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional study carried out in a tertiary university hospital. Demographic, clinical, anthropometric, laboratory, and histopathological variables were analyzed; uni- and multivariate analyses were performed. Histopathological variables analyzed were findings of liver biopsies collected during surgical procedures.
resultsOf 119 individuals, 105 (88.2%) were female. The mean age was 38.8 ± 9.3 years and the mean BMI was 37.6 ± 3.1 kg/m
conclusionThere were significant associations between anthropometric parameters and NAFLD aspects. WC and WHR were associated with steatosis; BMI, WC, and WHR were associated with steatohepatitis. WHR independently correlated with steatosis intensity.
