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

A recent major change has occurred in the nomenclature of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). From the multi-society Delphi consensus statement proposed a new term: metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in 2023. The term "nonalcoholic" was regarded as misleading on multiple grounds. Firstly, it failed to reflect the disease's metabolic origins. Secondly, it hindered patients' understanding. Thirdly, the terms "nonalcoholic" and "fatty" were regarded as stigmatising by patients and physicians in the field. The proposal of MASLD was a response to these concerns. Since its introduction, the Korean Association for the Study of the Liver has also introduced the new Korean term for MASLD, previously the NAFLD. This article will briefly introduce the new MASLD diagnostic criteria and discuss their implications.
