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
backgroundMetabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MASLD) is a chronic liver disease characterized by hepatocellular steatosis, which is closely related to metabolic syndrome, with annually increasing morbidity in recent years. Gynecomastia (GYN), an abnormal proliferation of breast tissue in males, is common in males with sex hormone imbalance. Currently, there is insufficient research on the morbidity of GYN and its correlation among MASLD patients.
aimTo investigate the prevalence of GYN and its associated clinical features in patients with MASLD and determine the prevalence of GYN in patients with MASLD and analyze the predictive effect of sex hormones on GYN using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital. Among them, 997 patients met the inclusion criteria and underwent breast ultrasonography to determine the presence of GYN. Anthropometric data, laboratory test data [estradiol (E2), androgens, liver function, glucose, lipids, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, creatinine, and uric acid,
resultsThe prevalence of GYN increased with the severity of fatty liver (27.6% for mild, 33.5% for moderate, and 58% for severe,
conclusionThe presence of GYN may suggest more severe metabolic abnormalities in patients with MASLD. Therefore, early recognition of GYN may be crucial for early intervention in metabolic syndrome and endocrine abnormalities in patients with MASLD.
