Ultrasound derived fat fraction indicates reduction of liver fat content after lifestyle modification in obese patients.

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
BackgroundSteatosis hepatis is of outstanding clinical importance. The aim of this study was to apply the new parametric method "Ultrasound Derived Fat Fraction" (UDFF) to monitor changes of liver fat in obese patients undergoing weight loss measures.MethodsIn 53 obese patients BMI, absolute body fat, waist circumference and UDFF were measured before and after a three-month weight loss intervention. UDFF measurements were performed using a Siemens ultrasound system (DAX, 1.0-3.5 Mz). We analysed the correlation of change in BMI (≥-1 vs < -1), body fat (≥-2 kg vs < -2 kg) and waist circumference (≥-10 cm vs < -10 cm) with the change in UDFF (≥-30% vs < -30%) (significance level:
