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

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a subtype of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and a progressive and chronic liver disorder with a significant risk for the development of liver-related morbidity and mortality. The complex and multifaceted pathophysiology of NASH makes its management challenging. Early identification of symptoms and management of patients through lifestyle modification is essential to prevent the development of advanced liver disease. Despite the increasing prevalence of NASH, there is no FDA-approved treatment for this disease. Currently, medications targeting metabolic disease risk factors and some antifibrotic medications are used for NASH patients but are not sufficiently effective. The beneficial effects of different drugs and phytochemicals represent new avenues for the development of safer and more effective treatments for NASH. In this review, different risk factors, clinical symptoms, diagnostic methods of NASH, and current treatment strategies for the management of patients with NASH are reviewed.
