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

There is growing evidence linking growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) to both metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and cardiovascular (CV) risk. Nevertheless, the potential relationship between circulating levels of GDF15 and key features of MASLD being predisposed to atherosclerotic CV disease is not fully unveiled. The aim of this study was to deepen into the role of circulating GDF15 levels on metabolic-associated liver injury and atherosclerotic CV disease. We determined the serum GDF15 levels in 156 participants of a metabolic patient-based cohort, and cross-sectionally explored its associations with liver injury and an advanced atherosclerotic lipoprotein profile assessed by nuclear magnetic resonance (
