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 fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is closely associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and hyperlipidemia. There is strong clinical evidence that reduction in at least 5-7% total body weight is associated with improvement in hepatic steatosis and regression of fibrosis, with weight loss representing the primary approach to treatment. This guide reviews recent data on dietary approaches studied in NAFLD management. The strongest evidence currently supports a hypocaloric diet to induce weight loss and subsequent improvement in liver enzymes and histology, as well as a Mediterranean diet, which can lead to improvement in steatosis even in the absence of weight reduction. The purpose of this paper is to provide clinicians with tools to engage patients in conversations about nutrition in the setting of NAFLD, ultimately guiding suitable personalized dietary recommendations.
