Amino Acid Metabolite Profiling for Predicting and Understanding the Metabolic Effects of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery.
Review in Journal of metabolic and bariatric surgery, 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
Metabolic and bariatric surgery induces metabolic benefits beyond weight loss, including improved insulin sensitivity, type 2 diabetes (T2D) remission, and reduced inflammation. Recent metabolomics research highlights amino acid metabolites-branched-chain amino acids, aromatic amino acids, and tryptophan-derived compounds-as key biomarkers for predicting surgical outcomes. Elevated preoperative levels of isoleucine, phenylalanine, levodopa, and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid are associated with improved glycemic control and T2D remission. Gut microbiota-derived metabolites, including indole-3-propionic acid and indole-3-pyruvic acid, contribute to insulin sensitivity and lean mass preservation. Additionally, serotonin-related indicators predict postoperative weight loss rates. These metabolites reflect individual metabolic heterogeneity and may outperform conventional clinical models in predicting surgical responsiveness. Integration of metabolomics into preoperative assessment may enhance precision medicine approaches and identify new therapeutic targets.
