1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 has become a global epidemic and a notable trigger for numerous chronic diseases, including insulin resistance, type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, non‑alcoholic fatty liver disease and cancer, which is characterized by chronic low‑grade inflammation in the adipose tissue. Traditionally, adipose tissue macrophages were considered the central drivers of obesity‑associated inflammation; however, studies have revealed that B cells play a notable role in adipose tissue inflammation and metabolic homeostasis. The present review systematically elaborates on the distribution and functions of B cells within adipose tissue, with a focus on the dynamic changes in B cell subsets during the progression of obesity, the mechanisms in promoting metabolic diseases, and the potential applications and challenges of targeting B cells for the treatment of obesity‑related metabolic disorders, in order to provide new insights into the mechanistic understanding and therapy of obesity and its associated metabolic diseases.
