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

BACKGROUND &

aimsMetabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is defined by abnormalities in cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs). Characterizing the contribution of individual CMRFs to clinical outcomes may guide prioritization of interventions. We evaluated the association of individual CMRFs with all-cause mortality in United States adults with MASLD.

methodsParticipants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) III (1988-1994) and continuous NHANES (1999-2018) were linked to mortality data through 2019. Adults >20 years of age were included if their Fatty Liver Index (FLI) was >60 and they had at least one CMRF (overweight/obesity, glucose intolerance, high blood pressure, triglycerides, or low high-density lipoprotein [HDL]). Cox regression analyzed risk of all-cause mortality adjusted for age, sex, and Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4).

resultsAmong 21,872 participants included (mean age, 50 years; 53% male), the mean body mass index (BMI) was 33.6 kg/m
