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) was redefined as metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in 2020. Due to this, further validation of the non-invasive tests used in NAFLD diagnosis is required for MAFLD. There are five known steatosis indices for computed tomography (CT)-diagnosed MAFLD. These indices include the fatty liver index (FLI), the hepatic steatosis index (HSI), the lipid accumulation product (LAP), the visceral adiposity index (VAI), and the Zhejiang University index (ZJU). We aimed to analyze the diagnostic abilities of these five widely known steatosis indices for CT-diagnosed MAFLD. From March 2012 to October 2019, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical information and images of 1300 adults aged ≥19 years who underwent CT scans at our institution. To compare differences, the Chi-square test and independent
