The Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Irisin Level: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Obesity surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This systematic analysis and meta-analysis aimed to assess changes in the plasma levels of irisin after bariatric surgery. Search strategy, study screening, and data gathering were all conducted using a checklist and the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Two researchers independently extracted the data, and a third person was included to resolve disagreements. The results illustrated no statistical difference between before and after surgery irisin plasma levels (P = 0.216, 95% CI = -1.812-0.410, SMD = -0.701, I-squared = 94.9%). BMI exhibited a meaningful decline after surgery compared to preoperative values (SMD = -3.09, 95% CI = -4.59--1.59, I-squared = 95.5%, P<0.05). According to our analysis, it can be concluded that irisin plasma levels are not significantly influenced by bariatric surgery.
