The association between the lipid profile and fasting blood glucose with weight related outcomes in healthy obese adults.
Article in BMC research notes, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectivesThe present study was conducted on healthy obese persons to determine: (i) the association between total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, total cholesterol/HDL ratio and fasting blood glucose (FBG) with (a) BMI, (b) waist circumference (WC) and (c) body fat and (ii) the presence of undiagnosed type 2 diabetes (based on fasting blood glucose) in the participants. There were 1140 participants of both sexes (female:male 697:443; group mean age 44.0 ± 10.8 years; BMI ≥ 25 kg/m
resultsBased on a linear regression analysis triglycerides acted as a significant predictor for body fat. Triglycerides showed a significant negative correlation with BMI and body fat. HDL cholesterol was significantly negatively correlated with waist circumference and positively correlated with body fat. Total cholesterol/HDL ratio was positively correlated with waist circumference and negatively correlated with body fat. A significant positive correlation of FBG and waist circumference was also observed. Among the healthy participants 34.2% had pre-diabetes and 13.6% had diabetes.
