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
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease characterized by subclinical inflammation and is related to obesity and metabolic syndrome (MS), but it is also frequently observed in nonobese populations. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between the white blood cell count-to-mean platelet volume ratio (WBC/MPV), platelet-to-lymphocyte count ratio (PLR) and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR) in association with NAFLD, considering the presence of obesity and MS. Additionally, we aimed to investigate whether these parameters exhibited similar correlations in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) as observed in NAFLD. This cross-sectional study included subjects who underwent a comprehensive health evaluation, including blood tests and abdominal ultrasonography. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on obesity and MS. Out of a total 5929 subjects (3271 males, mean age 49.7 ± 10.6 years), 2253 (38.0%) had NAFLD. WBC/MPV was significantly higher, and PLR was significantly lower in subjects with NAFLD. In the analysis restricted to the nonobese (BMI < 25 kg/m
