Circulating FGF21 and Ketone Bodies Modify the Risk of MASLD and Mortality: Insights from the PREVEND Cohort Study.
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
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) and ketone bodies are markers of metabolic dysregulation, independently associated with metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and mortality. We studied their interaction with MASLD and all-cause mortality in 6025 participants from the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-stage Disease (PREVEND) cohort. Plasma FGF21 (immunoassay) and ketone body concentrations (nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy) were measured at baseline. A Fatty Liver Index ≥60 was used as a proxy of MASLD. Logistic regression assessed associations with MASLD, and Cox models evaluated all-cause mortality over a median follow-up of 10.3 years. FGF21 and ketone bodies were not correlated (r = 0.02,
