Effects of Obesity and Exercise on Hepatic and Pancreatic Lipid Content and Glucose Metabolism: PET Studies in Twins Discordant for BMI.
Article in Biomolecules, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Obesity and sedentarism are associated with increased liver and pancreatic fat content (LFC and PFC, respectively) as well as impaired organ metabolism. Exercise training is known to decrease organ ectopic fat but its effects on organ metabolism are unclear. Genetic background affects susceptibility to obesity and the response to training. We studied the effects of regular exercise training on LFC, PFC, and metabolism in monozygotic twin pairs discordant for BMI. We recruited 12 BMI-discordant monozygotic twin pairs (age 40.4, SD 4.5 years; BMI 32.9, SD 7.6, 8 female pairs). Ten pairs completed six months of training intervention. We measured hepatic insulin-stimulated glucose uptake using [
