Circulating Bilirubin Levels, but Not Their Genetic Determinants, Are Inversely Associated with Steatotic Liver Disease in Adolescents.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Epidemiologic studies suggest that elevated plasma unconjugated bilirubin confer protection against steatotic liver disease (SLD) in adults. However, evidence supporting this protective role in adolescents remains limited. We aimed to assess the association between serum bilirubin levels and their genetic determinants in protecting against SLD in Chilean adolescents. We conducted a cross-sectional study with 704 adolescents aged 15.4 ± 1 years (52% girls) of the Chilean Growth and Obesity Cohort Study. Ultrasonography echogenicity was used to diagnose SLD. We measured Z-scores of body mass index (z-BMI), total bilirubin (TB), and the genetic determinants of bilirubin (including rs887829 genotypes of
