Dietary characteristics associated with the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease in non-obese Japanese participants: A cross-sectional study.

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
Background and Aim: Dietary characteristics associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in non-obese patients remain to be elucidated. This study examined the association of NAFLD and MASLD with dietary characteristics according to obesity status. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study of 15 135 participants ( Results: For non-obese participants, NAFLD was found in 31.0% of men and 19.4% of women. Non-obese MASLD was found in 27.6% of men and 18.1% of women. Multivariable-adjusted stepwise logistic regression analysis indicated that, in males, both non-obese NAFLD and non-obese MASLD were significantly and negatively associated with "often eat sesame/nuts", and positively associated with "often eat noodles/rice bowl" and "often eat evening meal" ( Conclusion: This cross-sectional study indicates the existence of sex and obesity differences in the association of NAFLD and MASLD with dietary characteristics. Our findings suggest that some dietary characteristics are associated with NAFLD and MASLD prevalence in non-obese Japanese participants.
