Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: Pathogenesis, complications and pharmacological treatment.
Review in EXCLI journal, 2026. 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
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasing in prevalence worldwide. Pathogenesis of MASLD has been considerably heterogenous. Increased hepatic de novo lipogenesis, adipose tissue dysfunction, genetic predisposition, epigenetic mechanism, and other related factors have been associated with the development and progression of MASLD. Patients with MASLD are at high risk of not only adverse liver-related outcomes, including hepatocellular carcinoma, but also cardiometabolic disease including type 2 diabetes mellitus. Weight loss is the cornerstone of therapy among the various treatments for MASLD to decrease hepatic fat accumulation and delay the progression of inflammation and fibrosis. Resmetirom and semaglutide are approved for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis with moderate to advanced fibrosis, and many drugs are under investigation. Careful attention should be paid to the screening of MASLD, and concerted efforts should be made to manage it appropriately. See also the graphical abstract(Fig. 1).
