Prevalence of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease at a Tertiary Care Center in Saudi Arabia.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo determine the prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients who received abdominal imaging and to assess the clinical and metabolic characteristics of NAFLD.
methodsThis is a retrospective study of 500 family medicine patients (aged 18 years and older) who completed abdominal imaging at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from January 2016 through June 2020.
resultsThe patients enrolled had a mean age of 49.41 ± 14.80 years, with 300 females and 349 of Saudi nationality. The mean body mass index (BMI) was 29.43 ± 6.61 kg/m
conclusionOur findings reiterate the significance of obesity and the coexistence of cardiovascular risk factors in NAFLD. Further studies are needed to corroborate and expand our findings, enabling more refined strategies for the prevention, risk prediction, early detection, and management of NAFLD.
