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

Background: Overweight status, obesity, and diabetes represent significant socioeconomic burdens that require long-term management. Methods: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dual-agonist CagriSema vs semaglutide monotherapy, cagrilintide monotherapy, and placebo in adults with overweight/obese status and type 2 diabetes, we searched Embase, MEDLINE, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library up to 14 June 2026 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Separate pairwise meta-analyses were conducted using random effects models. Results: Eight RCTs comprising 6898 participants were included. CagriSema was associated with significantly greater percentage body weight reduction compared to semaglutide [MD -6.60%; 95%CI: -8.51 to -4.68; P<0.0001; I Conclusion: Compared with current standard monotherapies and placebos, CagriSema demonstrates superior weight loss, glucose, and lipid control. Key limitations include the relatively small number of eligible trials and the current lack of long-term cardiovascular endpoints.
