Management of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease incidentally detected during other medical assessments.
Article in Drugs in context, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Elevated liver enzyme levels are a frequent incidental finding in primary care, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is the main cause of incidental elevation of liver enzymes worldwide. The features of the disease vary from simple steatosis, characterized by a benign prognosis, to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and cirrhosis, increasing morbidity and mortality. In this case report, abnormal liver activity was incidentally detected during other medical assessments. The patient was treated with silymarin 140 mg three times daily, resulting in decreased serum liver enzyme levels over treatment with a good safety profile. This article is part of the
