1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundGenetic factors may have a significant influence on the likelihood of liver fibrosis in individuals with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The present study was conducted to explore how single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) impacts the development of fibrosis in those suffering from NAFLD. MATERIALS AND

methodsUtilizing the UK Biobank dataset, we conducted a nested case-control analysis among NAFLD participants, defining the case group as those with liver fibrosis and cirrhosis during follow-up. For our

resultsThe study analyzed data from 5467 participants (1094 cases and 4373 controls). Genome-wide association analysis identified nine significant loci, including the novel rs2073080 variant, strongly associated with NAFLD-associated hepatic fibrosis.

conclusionOur research highlights a significant association of SAMM50-rs2073080 with the progression of NAFLD to hepatic fibrosis, and the
