Association of Diet Quality, Dietary Acid Load, and Dietary Antioxidant Index With Cardiometabolic and NAFLD Risk Factors Among Patients With Metabolic Syndrome: A Cross-Sectional Study.

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 syndrome (MetS) is closely associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Diet quality, acid-base balance, and antioxidant intake may influence NAFLD risk. This study examines the relationship between the Diet Quality Index (AHEI), Dietary Acid Load (DAL), and Dietary Antioxidant Index (DAI) with liver enzyme levels, lipid profiles, and NAFLD predictors in individuals with MetS. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 420 adults diagnosed with MetS according to International Diabetes Federation criteria in Zanjan, Iran. Dietary intake was assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire. AHEI, DAL, and DAI were calculated. Liver enzymes, lipid profiles, and predictive indices, including the Fatty Liver Index (FLI), Hepatic Steatosis Index (HSI), and Triglyceride-Glucose (TyG) Index, were analyzed. Multivariable regression adjusted for confounders. Higher AHEI (tertile 3 vs. tertile 1) was associated with lower FLI (65.37 ± 10.46 vs. 74.37 ± 11.39 (all values presented as mean ± standard deviation [SD]);
