Impact on Metabolism Generated by Surgical and Pharmacological Interventions for Weight Loss in Women with Infertility.
Review in Metabolites, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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 increases the risk of anovulation, insulin resistance, hyperandrogenism, and endometrial dysfunction, resulting in women with infertility and increasing preconceptional and pregnancy complications. Bariatric surgery has been described as the most effective intervention for obesity, with improved fertility outcomes. However, its invasive nature increases the potential of nutritional deficiencies and the need for a delayed conception post-surgery. On the other hand, pharmacological treatments such as glucagon-like-peptide 1 receptor agonists offer non-invasive alternatives with promising results in body weight, improving insulin sensitivity and restoring ovarian function. However, their use must be discontinued before conception due to potential fetal risks. Other available pharmacological treatment options encompass topiramate, phentermine, and Orlistat. The choice of treatment must be individualized considering cost-effectiveness, accessibility, obesity severity, reproductive goals, and associated risks within each patient. A multidisciplinary approach is essential to optimize metabolic and reproductive health in obesity and infertility. This review will examine the impact on metabolism when comparing surgical and pharmacological interventions for weight loss in women with infertility.
