Updates on Monogenic Obesity in a Multifactorial Disease.
Review in Obesity surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Obesity is a worldwide epidemic with rates nearly doubling over the last 30 years. Despite increasing prevalence, the multifactorial pathogenesis of obesity continues to be widely misunderstood. Investigating genetic drivers in the development of obesity is an important area of focus, as genetics move to the forefront of medicine and personalized treatment evolves. Thus, this narrative review focused on four genes which have genome-wide association study-documented links to obesity and obesity syndromes. We explored their involvement in the predisposition, progression, and prognosis of obesity. Leptin, leptin receptor, pro-opiomelanocortin, and melanocortin 4 receptor are our four genes of interest, and herein we elaborated on the current literature, pathogenesis, and available treatments for patients with these specific genetic mutations.
