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

objectivesTo investigate the correlations between physical activity (PA) and metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) within a substantial population-based survey, and to examine the association between PA and liver fibrosis (LF).

methodsData from the 2017-2020 NHANES cycle were utilized in this study. PA was divided into four types: leisure-time PA (LTPA), transportation-related PA (TPA), occupational PA (OPA) and total time PA (total PA, which is composed of OPA, TPA and LTPA). Weighted logistic regression models were performed to analyze the associations between PA and MAFLD/MASLD and LF. Mediation analysis was used to explore whether LTPA completely mediated the statistically significant relationship between total PA and MAFLD/MASLD or LF.

resultsThe study encompassed a sample size of 5897 participants aged 20 years and above, among the total participants, 2568 individuals with MAFLD and 2588 individuals with MASLD. There was no statistically significant correlation observed between OPA/TPA and MAFLD/MASLD and LF; however, active LTPA demonstrated an inverse association with MAFLD/MASLD (OR: 0.548; 95% CI: 0.458, 0.656/OR: 0.543; 95% CI: 0.453, 0.650), as well as a negative correlation with significant/advanced LF (OR: 0.457; 95% CI: 0.334,0.625/OR: 0.427; 95% CI: 0.295,0.619). There was also a significant inverse association between total PA and MAFLD/MASLD or LF, but this association was carried by the difference in LTPA.

conclusionParticipation in active LTPA is associated with a reduced likelihood of MAFLD/MASLD and LF, while neither OPA nor TPA can replace these effects of LTPA.
