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

Individually, metabolic variations can significantly influence predisposition to obesity in the form of the obesity-prone (super-responders) and obesity-resistant (non-responders) phenotypes in response to modern calorie-dense diets. In this study, C57BL/6J mice (n = 76) were randomly assigned to either a low-fat diet (LFD) or a high-fat diet (HFD) for 6 weeks, followed by selection of the normally obese (HFD), non-responders (NR), super-responders (SR), or super-responders switched back to the low-fat diet (SR-LFD) for an additional 8 weeks. SR mice showed the highest gains in body weight, lean and fat body mass, and total and free water, in part due to increased feed efficiency, despite having a respiratory exchange ratio (RER) similar to that of NR mice. A switch to the LFD was sufficient to revert most of the observed physiological changes in the SR-LFD mice; however, voluntary physical activity and exercise capacity did not return to the basal level. NR mice showed the highest food intake, lowest feed efficiency, increased oxygen consumption during the light (rest) cycle, increased physical activity during the dark (active) cycle, and increased heat production during both cycles. These variations were observed in the absence of changes in food intake and fecal parameters; however, NR fecal lipid content was lower, and the NR fecal microbiome profile was characterized by reduced abundance of
