Genetic background influences weight-loss trajectories on the mid-term after bariatric surgery.
Article in International journal of obesity (2005), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Bariatric surgery (BS) is a highly effective therapy for morbid obesity, yet with a wide inter-individual variability on weight-loss responses. To determine genetic influence on weight loss after BS we compared the within-pairs difference in maximum percentage excess weight loss (%EWL) and the within-pairs %EWL differences over a mean follow-up of 53.6 ± 36.4 months between 47 pairs of first-degree relatives and 47 genetically unrelated control pairs. Within-pairs maximum %EWL difference was similar between first-degree related pairs and control pairs (p = 0.100). Within-pairs %EWL difference increased through follow-up (p < 0.001). However, effect of time was different depending on genetic background (p
