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

Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) is a leading cause of liver cirrhosis, with its global prevalence rising due to obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. While bariatric surgery remains effective for weight loss, Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 analogs such as liraglutide are emerging as promising pharmacological treatments. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a 3-month liraglutide treatment on liver steatosis, subclinical markers, and insulin resistance in non-diabetic, obese patients with MASLD. Twenty-eight obese adults (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m
