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: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects a significant proportion of the global population. Lean MASLD, characterized by normal body mass index but the presence of metabolic dysfunction, presents a unique clinical challenge. This study explored the role of diet quality, measured by the Healthy Eating Index (HEI), in the development of lean MASLD. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 2017-2020). Participants were adults classified as lean (body mass index <23 kg/m Results: Among 1707 participants, higher HEI scores were associated with a reduced likelihood of lean MASLD. Specifically, individuals in HEI quartile 4 had 66% lower odds of developing MASLD compared to those in quartile 1 (odds ratio = 0.34, 95% confidence interval = 0.12-0.96, Conclusions: A higher-quality diet, as indicated by a better HEI score, is associated with a lower risk of lean MASLD. This study underscores the importance of diet quality in MASLD prevention and highlights the need for further research into specific dietary components that impact liver health in lean individuals.
