Effects of Sleeve Gastrectomy and Treadmill Exercise on Skeletal Muscle and Ectopic Fat in High-Fat Diet-Induced Obese Rats.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A high-fat diet (HFD) can lead to obesity and skeletal muscle atrophy. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) improves obesity and increases skeletal muscle mass. This study examined whether SG prevented skeletal muscle atrophy in a diet-induced rat obesity rat model. First, 8-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent surgical (sham-operated or SG) and dietary (standard, high-fat diet, or same pair feeding as SG [PF]) interventions without exercise. In the second experiment, treadmill exercise was added for 4 weeks post-SG (SG + Ex). In the third experiment, rats received an adiponectin receptor agonist (AdipoRon) injection. The HFD induced weight gain and decreased muscle fiber area. SG + Ex reversed these levels, followed by increases in adiponectin in the blood and skeletal muscle and myoblast determination protein 1 (MyoD) and decreased peri-muscular adipose tissue (PMAT) mass, but SG alone did not. No similar changes were observed in the PF group, with or without exercise. Injection of AdipoRon had a similar effect on skeletal muscle and PMAT as SG + Ex. The combination of SG and exercise, but not calorie restriction alone, had better impacts on skeletal muscle and PMAT than SG or exercise alone.
