Long-Term Weight Gain Associated With High Omentin Levels at Hospital Discharge Improves Prognosis of Patients Following Acute Heart Failure.
Observational study in Journal of cardiovascular translational research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
A obesity paradox has been described following heart failure (HF). The aim of this study was to analyze the association between food intake-involved adipokines and long-term weight changes. Leptin, adiponectin, and omentin were analyzed in 92 acute HF (AHF) patients at discharge, classified on the basis of weight gains or losses > 6%. The mean follow-up was 256 ± 143 days. Leptin and adiponectin levels were similar among weight groups. However, omentin levels were higher in those patients who had gained weight (16 ± 5 ng/mL) than in those who had lost weight (12 ± 4 ng/mL) or showed no weight change (11 ± 5 ng/mL; p < 0.002). Omentin levels were the best independent predictors for patients with weight gain, who had less mortality and hospital readmission during the follow-up. The association between omentin levels and weight gain might explain part of the obesity paradox in HF.
