Liver cirrhosis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.
Review in Gastroenterology report, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
In the present narrative review, we have summarized the current evidence on the natural progression of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) cirrhosis observed through the placebo arm in clinical trials and observational studies. The outcomes scrutinized throughout our review were histology-related changes, non-invasive fibrosis markers, indicators of decompensation, end-stage hepatic complications, and mortality reported during the different clinical trials. Given the short duration of clinical trials, observational studies were included to obtain better insight into the long-term progression and prognosis of MASH cirrhosis. Lastly, new updates about MASH cirrhosis treatments were listed, and the results of these randomized clinical trials were described to enhance our understanding of our current standing in the treatment of MASH cirrhosis.
