The Interplay Between Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes: Common Pathophysiological Mechanisms Contributing to Telomere Shortening.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The worldwide prevalence of obesity continues to increase, representing a serious public health issue due to associated comorbidities. Obesity is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), which shares similar pathophysiological mechanisms. In both conditions, oxidative stress, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, abnormal adipose tissue function, and senescence are observed, ultimately leading to insulin resistance. In both cases, hypertrophic adipose tissue is associated with telomere shortening. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying telomere shortening in obesity and diabetes may be crucial for deepening our understanding of these pathologies, with the ultimate aim of its translational implications. Several studies have shown that telomere shortening is present in patients with metabolic disorders, emphasizing its prognostic value for the onset and progression of these diseases. From this perspective, this article highlights the importance of telomere biology, which can aid in developing new therapeutic options for metabolic disorders.
