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) and its progressive form non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) have emerged as the leading causes of chronic liver disease-related mortality. The prevalence of NAFLD/NASH is expected to increase given the epidemics of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Older patients are disproportionally affected by NASH and related complications such as progressive fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma; however, they are often ineligible for liver transplantation due to their frailty and comorbidities, and effective medical treatments are still lacking. In this review we focused on pathways that are key to the aging process in the liver and perpetuate NAFLD/NASH, leading to fibrosis. In addition, we highlighted recent findings and cross-talks of normal and/or senescent liver cells, dysregulated nutrient sensing, proteostasis and mitochondrial dysfunction in the framework of changing metabolic milieu. Better understanding these pathways during preclinical and clinical studies will be essential to design novel and specific therapeutic strategies to treat NASH in the elderly.
