Adipose 'neighborhoods' collaborate to maintain metabolic health.
Review in Current opinion in genetics & development, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Body fat is stored in anatomically distinct adipose depots that vary in their cell composition and play specialized roles in systemic metabolic homeostasis via secreted products. Their local effects on nearby tissues (e.g. the gut and visceral adipose tissues) are increasingly recognized and this local crosstalk is being elucidated. The major subcutaneous fat depots, abdominal and gluteal-femoral, exert opposite effects on the risk of metabolic disease. The pace of research into developmental, sex, and genetic determinants of human adipose depot growth and function is rapidly accelerating, providing insight into the pathogenesis of metabolic dysfunction in persons with obesity.
