Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis Patient Characterization and Real-World Management Approaches in Italy.
Article in Pragmatic and observational research, 2024. 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
Background: Although the estimated prevalence of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in Italy is 4-6%, little is known about patient characteristics and care pathways. Aim: To describe patient characteristics and management approaches for patients with NASH or suspected NASH in Italy. Methods: Data were drawn from the Adelphi Real World NASH Disease Specific Programme™, a cross-sectional survey of endocrinologists and gastroenterologists in Italy from January to March 2018. Physicians completed questionnaires for their next five consecutively consulting patients with NASH or suspected NASH. Analyses were descriptive. Results: Seventy-six physicians provided data on 380 patients. The mean age was 58.5 ± 11.1 years and the mean body mass index was 31.8 ± 5.5 kg/m Conclusion: Patients with NASH in Italy had high levels of obesity and comorbidities, while diagnosis and treatment frequently were not according to guidelines. Our data show an unmet need for more targeted diagnosis and treatment in Italian patients with NASH, in order to optimize outcomes.
