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

Despite the rising prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the underlying disease pathophysiology remains unclear. There is a great need for an efficient and reliable "human" in vitro model to study NAFLD and the progression to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which will soon become the leading indication for liver transplantation. Here, we review the recent developments in the use of three-dimensional (3D) liver organoids as a model to study NAFLD and NASH pathophysiology and possible treatments. Various techniques that are currently used to make liver organoids are discussed, such as the use of induced pluripotent stem cells versus primary cell lines and human versus murine cells. Moreover, methods for inducing lipid droplet accumulation and fibrosis to model NAFLD are explored. Finally, the limitations specific to the 3D organoid model for NAFLD/NASH are reviewed, highlighting the need for further development of multilineage models to include hepatic nonparenchymal cells and immune cells. The ultimate goal is to be able to accurately recapitulate the complex liver microenvironment in which NAFLD develops and progresses to NASH.
