Insulin resistance predicts the effectiveness of different glycemic index diets on weight loss in non-obese women.
Trial report in Obesity facts, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThe present study aimed to evaluate whether baseline insulin resistance (IR) modify weight change associated to glycemic index (GI) of the diet.
methodThis is a secondary analysis of a randomized GI intervention according to baseline HOMA-IR. Middle-aged (25-45 years), non-obese (BMI 23-29.9 kg/m²) women were randomized to low or high GI diets matched on total energy, macronutrient composition, and fiber content. Both groups received dietary counseling based on a small energy restriction (100-300 kcal/day). Women were classified in two groups according to their baseline HOMA-IR: IR (n = 64) and non-IR (n = 121).
resultsAt baseline, IR and non-IR groups had similar BMI (26.7 vs. 26.3 kg/m²; p = 0.21), but the IR group presented with higher waist circumference (82.7 vs. 80.8 cm; p = 0.02) and showed greater weight loss after 12 months of follow-up (-1.6 vs. -1.1 kg; p = 0.01), mainly among those in a high-GI diet (-2.1 vs. -1.0 kg; p = 0.005) compared to the non-IR group (-1.4 vs. -0.8 kg; p = 0.04).
conclusionsThe high-GI group showed statistically significant higher reduction in body weight, mainly among those women with baseline IR . Low-GI diet did not facilitate weight loss neither in IR women nor in non-IR women.
