Update on Imaging-based Noninvasive Methods for Assessing Hepatic Steatosis in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.
Review in Journal of medical ultrasound. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), among the most common chronic liver diseases worldwide, affects approximately 25% of the global population. Its incidence is increasing owing to various risk factors, including genetic variation, metabolic health, dietary habits, and microbiota. Hepatic steatosis is a critical histological characteristic of NAFLD. Evaluating liver fat content is vital for identifying and following up with patients at risk of developing NAFLD. NAFLD includes simple liver steatosis and more severe forms such as inflammation, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, fibrosis, and cirrhosis. The early assessment of fatty liver is important for reversing liver disease progression. Metabolic (dysfunction)-associated fatty liver disease recently replaced NAFLD as the most common hepatic disease worldwide. This article reviews the current state of noninvasive imaging, especially ultrasound, for liver fat quantification.
