Adherence to an Early Exercise Plan Promotes Visceral Fat Loss in the First Month Following Bariatric Surgery.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe evidence supporting the benefits of early exercise in post-bariatric patients is growing. This study analyzed the effects of early exercise (1-week post-bariatric surgery) on body composition in patients with overweight and obesity 1 month after surgery.
methodsThirty patients (age 36.5 ± 12.3 [range, 18-65] years; body mass index [BMI], 36.2 ± 12.3 kg/m
resultsTWL, SMM, and FM loss were similar between non-adherent and adherent subjects (10.2 ± 3.5 kg and 11.9 ± 3.6 kg; p = 0.2; 2.9 ± 1.0 kg and 3.2 ± 1.2; p = 0.2; 6.2 ± 2.1 kg and 7.5 ± 3.6 kg; p = 0.2, respectively), whereas VFM was markedly reduced in the adherent group (29.9 ± 18.2 cm
conclusionsEarly exercise training accelerated visceral fat mass loss during the initial recovery period in patients after bariatric surgery. Additionally, adherence to daily protein intake recommendations can increase total body weight and fat mass loss.
