HEALTH-RELATED QUALITY OF LIFE IN CHRONIC LIVER DISEASE: CLINICAL BURDEN, DETERMINANTS, AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PATIENT-CENTERED CARE.
Review in Arquivos de gastroenterologia, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundChronic liver disease significantly distresses patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Factors such as ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, medication side effects, malnutrition, sarcopenia, frailty, the prospect of liver transplantation, caregiver reliance, financial burdens, and future uncertainty can all negatively influence HRQoL. Evaluating HRQoL in liver disease is critical. Recognizing factors that impair HRQoL in these patients enables the multidisciplinary team to promote health in a comprehensive biopsychosocial approach to well-being.
methodsWe searched the PubMed database using these descriptors: health-related quality of life, cirrhosis, liver disease, alcohol-related liver disease, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, viral hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, hepatocellular carcinoma, liver transplantation, sarcopenia, frailty, and malnutrition.
resultsHRQoL is negatively affected by the severity of liver disease and its complications. Moreover, nutritional and psychological aspects such as sarcopenia, frailty, malnutrition, fear of disease progression and need for transplantation, feeling of dependence on caregivers, and financial impacts of the disease also culminate in reduced quality of life.
conclusionPeople with chronic liver disease experience a significant impairment in their quality of life due to various clinical, nutritional, and social factors. For this reason, a multidisciplinary, global assessment with systematic appreciation of HRQoL at each consultation is essential when following these patients.
