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
purposeDespite the increasing prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a liver cancer etiological factor, among Chinese young adults (CYA), there is a lack of study assessing awareness and knowledge of NAFLD among them. This study aimed to assess awareness and knowledge of NAFLD, and identify the factors associated with awareness and knowledge of NAFLD among CYA. We conducted a survey to assess awareness and knowledge of NAFLD among students who enrolled in one university undergraduate program in 2018, 2019, and 2020 through a newly developed web-based, self-administered questionnaire. The outcomes included awareness of NAFLD and knowledge score of NAFLD. We conducted unadjusted and adjusted analyses of associated factors with these outcomes. A total of 1373 students participated in the survey. Of all participants, 26.2% reported that they had heard of NAFLD, 7.7% reported that they had heard of lean NAFLD, and 11.1% received ≥ 20 points in the knowledge section of NAFLD. The mean and median scores were 9.35 (Std = 7.67) and 9 (range 0-27). Factors associated with having awareness and knowledge (≥ 20 points) of NAFLD included medical background, high medical knowledge level, and family history of NAFLD. There was low NAFLD awareness and knowledge among CYA aged 18 to 25 years. Our findings point to the need to develop an educational intervention for CYA to improve their NAFLD awareness and knowledge. Further studies should include information on physical activity and dietary habits to test whether NAFLD awareness and knowledge impact those habits.
