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 and Aims: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), causing cirrhosis and liver cancer, is prevalent worldwide. Analyses of internet searches for "fatty liver" and methods to raise MASLD awareness are needed. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed co-occurring terms with "fatty liver" and tracked search histories to identify key terms. In a comparative study, a banner advertisement about MASLD was shown to individuals searching for key terms (key term group: KTG) or regardless of the search terms (control group: CTR). The ad redirected viewers to an educational cartoon, followed by a questionnaire. Results: The most frequent co-occurrence term was "how to treat." People searched mainly for lifestyle-related disease and diet terms. Key terms included "diet," "blood sugar level," "cholesterol," "triglyceride," "visceral fat," and "antihypertensive drugs." Banner views were 5 864 184 for KTG and 49 388 176 for CTR. KTG had a higher click-through rate than CTR (0.097% vs. 0.063%; Conclusion: Search term-based advertising may help increase public awareness of MASLD and may encourage earlier intention to seek medical consultation.
