A prospective comparison of three ultrasound-based techniques in quantitative diagnosis of hepatic steatosis in NAFLD.
Article in Abdominal radiology (New York), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
purposeTo investigate the correlation between different ultrasound attenuation-based techniques and to compare their diagnostic performances using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (
methodsParticipants who had clinical suspicion of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) were prospectively recruited. Each subject had ultrasound with attenuation imaging (ATI) or quantitative ultrasound including tissue attenuation imaging (TAI) and tissue scatter-distribution imaging (TSI), and controlled-attenuation parameter (CAP) and
results130 participants had ultrasound scanning. Among them, 67 had CAP and 48 had
conclusionDifferent ultrasound attenuation-based techniques were well correlated and exhibited good diagnostic performances in quantitative diagnosis of hepatic steatosis, however, the threshold values were different. Combinations of multiple parameters may improve the diagnostic performance in detecting hepatic steatosis.
