Serum FABP1 Levels Correlate Positively with Obesity in Chinese Patients After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: a 12-Month Follow-up Study.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
objectiveThe role of liver fatty acid-binding protein (FABP1) in obesity is presently unclear. We investigated the association of FABP1 with obesity and the changes noted after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in a Chinese population.
methodsThe cross-sectional analysis included 187 individuals: 65 had normal weight (18.5 ≤ body mass index (BMI) < 24 kg/m
resultsFABP1 levels in the obese (30.33 ± 23.59 ng/ml, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001) and overweight (18.96 ± 18.75 ng/ml, P = 0.471) individuals were significantly higher than those in normal weight individuals (14.30 ± 9.37 ng/ml). Linear regression analysis revealed that the FABP1 levels were positively correlated with BMI (R
conclusionSerum FABP1 levels are closely correlated with obesity and many metabolic factors, and we found that with the decrease in BMI after LSG, the FABP1 levels also progressively decreased postoperatively.
