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

Aim of the study: Data concerning the clinical manifestation and outcomes of lean metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) are scarce and inconsistent. The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of MASLD and predictors of its occurrence. Material and methods: The study included patients from the Polish Gallstone Surgery Registry diagnosed with MASLD according to the current criteria. Results: Among 3,419 patients, MASLD was diagnosed in 24.2%. Lean MASLD was diagnosed in 11.3% of patients with MASLD. Independent predictors of lean MASLD were atherogenic dyslipidaemia (OR = 94.16, CI: 45.54-197.71, Conclusions: Lean MASLD is not a rare form of the disease, and in the lean MASLD group there are patients with a high rate of metabolic abnormalities which may significantly increase cardiovascular risk and the risk of MASLD progression.
