Review in Obesity surgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Besides the role in energy storing and body health isolating, adipose tissue produces proteins, the so-called adipokines, with pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory actions that contribute to metabolic control and to appetite and energy expenditure regulation. The marked adipose tissue loss following bariatric surgery corresponds to a rearrangement of serum adipokine pattern, with increase of anti-inflammatory and decrease of pro-inflammatory agents. This might play a relevant role in the postoperative improvement of metabolic conditions. However, after surgically induced weight loss, other investigations failed to evidence significant modifications of serum concentration of some adipokines. This review speculates that the composition of adipose tissue lost could influence postoperative changes in some adipokine concentration and that an adequate adipokine pattern plays a pivotal role for the long-term metabolic outcome.
