Roles of Radiological Tests in Clinical Trials and the Clinical Management of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.
Review in Clinics in liver disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Radiological testing is now routinely used for clinical trial prescreening, diagnosis, and treatment and referral. The CAP performs well in detecting fatty liver but is unable to grade and track longitudinal changes. MRI-PDFF is a better technique for evaluating longitudinal changes and is used as a primary endpoint in trials of antisteatotic agents. The probability of detecting liver fibrosis using radiological testing techniques is high when performed at referral centers, and reasonable imaging strategies include the combination of FIB-4 and VCTE, the FAST Score, MAST, and MEFIB. The strategy currently recommended is the sequential application of FIB-4 and VCTE.
