Implications of inflammation and insulin resistance in obese pregnant women with gestational diabetes: A case study.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundObesity is one of the leading pregnancy risks for both the mother and the neonate. The prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus has been increasing, especially with the increase in obesity in reproductive-aged women. A high body mass index, a sedentary lifestyle, a previous macrosomic infant, polycystic ovary syndrome and hypothyroidism are the main risk factors for gestational diabetes mellitus. Early gestational diabetes mellitus detection in high-risk individuals is a useful method for preventing further complications and/or preventing this disease by improving the patient's lifestyle. CASE PRESENTATION: A morbidly obese woman with a high body mass index (>36) at 24 weeks gestational age presented with several gestational diabetes mellitus risk factors. Her glucose tolerance test verified gestational diabetes mellitus, and, incidentally, her C-reactive protein level was elevated without obvious reason. Her plasma levels of inflammatory cytokines had also been assessed and were exaggerated. After lifestyle intervention, including weight management, the patient's inflammatory mediators, including her C-reactive protein level, dropped. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the relationship between the patient's inflammation and obesity.
conclusionAntenatal C-reactive protein screening could be used throughout pregnancy to predict inflammation from high-risk pregnant women. This case scenario describes the interrelationships between inflammation, insulin resistance and adipokines, as well as the contributions of hypothyroidism and polycystic ovary syndrome. Further research should emphasise the relationships between inflammation and obesity in pregnancy.
