The Physiology Of the WEight Reduced State (POWERS) study: assessing energy balance.
Article in International journal of obesity (2005), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesWe provide the rationale for and description of energy balance measures (i.e., energy intake and energy expenditure) in The Physiology Of the WEight Reduced State (POWERS) study which aims to understand the contribution of the many factors that influence weight regain following behavioral weight loss.
methodsThe primary dependent variable is weight regain over 1 year following a 7% or greater supervised weight loss. The balance between energy intake and expenditure is the primary determinant of weight regain. Healthy adults (target n = 205), aged 25- < 60 years, with body mass index (BMI) 30- < 40 kg/m DISCUSSION: This manuscript describes the rationale for the methods chosen to assess energy balance and the analytical methods employed to normalize and express data in the setting of changes in body weight and composition immediately following behavioral weight loss and thereafter at 4- and 12-months post-weight loss.
