Prevalence of Risk Factors for Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Middle-Aged and Elderly Patients With Cryptogenic Cirrhosis.
Article in Journal of clinical and experimental hepatology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Aim of the study: To study the prevalence of risk factors for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in middle-aged (40-59 years) and elderly patients (≥60 years) with cryptogenic cirrhosis as compared to those with hepatitis B or C virus (HBV or HCV) related cirrhosis. Methods and materials: Between August 2013 and December 2014, cases (cryptogenic cirrhosis) and controls (HBV/HCV cirrhosis) above 40 years of age were prospectively recruited and assessed for the cause and prevalence of risk factors for NAFLD. Results: One hundred eighteen cases (male-74%; age 55 (40-74) years; median (range); Child's class A:B:C-46:38:16) and 59 controls (male-80%; age 55.5 (40-69) years; Child's class A:B:C-56:30:14) were enrolled. Obesity (53% v/s 39%, Conclusion: Among middle-aged and elderly patients with cirrhosis, there was a higher prevalence of risk factors for NAFLD in those with cryptogenic cirrhosis, compared to those with HBV or HCV cirrhosis.
