Chinese herbal formula in the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: current evidence and practice.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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), formerly known as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, continues to rise with rapid economic development and poses significant challenges to human health. No effective drugs are clinically approved. MASLD is regarded as a multifaceted pathological process encompassing aberrant lipid metabolism, insulin resistance, inflammation, gut microbiota imbalance, apoptosis, fibrosis, and cirrhosis. In recent decades, herbal medicines have gained increasing attention as potential therapeutic agents for the prevention and treatment of MASLD, due to their good tolerance, high efficacy, and low toxicity. In this review, we summarize the pathological mechanisms of MASLD; emphasis is placed on the anti-MASLD mechanisms of Chinese herbal formula (CHF), especially their effects on improving lipid metabolism, inflammation, intestinal flora, and fibrosis. Our goal is to better understand the pharmacological mechanisms of CHF to inform research on the development of new drugs for the treatment of MASLD.
