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

The liver is an organ of vital importance in the body; it is the center of metabolic activities and acts as the primary line of defense against toxic compounds. Exposure to environmental toxicants is an unavoidable fallout from rapid industrialization across the world and is even higher in developing countries. Technological development and industrialization have led to the release of toxicants such as pollutant toxic gases, chemical discharge, industrial effluents, pesticides and solvents, into the environment. In the last few years, a growing body of evidence has shed light on the potential impact of environmental toxicants on liver health, in particular, on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) incidence and progression. NAFLD is a multifactorial disease linked to metabolic derangement including diabetes and other complications. Environmental toxicants including xenobiotics and pollutants may have a direct or indirect steatogenic/fibrogenic impact on the liver and should be considered as risk factors associated with NAFLD. This review discusses the contribution of environmental toxicants toward the increasing disease burden of NAFLD.
