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 one of the leading causes of end-stage liver disease, leading to a rapidly growing global public health burden. The term "gut microbiome (GM)" refers to the approximately 100 trillion microbial cells that inhabit the host's gastrointestinal tract. There is increasing evidence that GM is involved in the pathogenesis of NAFLD and may be a potential target for intervention. To explore GM-based strategies for precise diagnosis and treatment of NAFLD, great efforts have been made to develop a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the host-microbe interaction. This review evaluates this interaction critically, mainly considering the intricate regulation of the metabolism, immunity, and inflammatory status during the evolution of the disease pathogenesis, revealing roles for the GM in NAFLD by examining advances in potential mechanisms, diagnostics, and modulation strategies.
