1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

aim of the studyTo assess the changes in the leukocyte profile and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration in adolescents with excess fat mass after 6-12 months of dietary intervention. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe retrospective study included 99 overweight and obese adolescents, aged from 10.0 to 17.5 years, 82 of whom were re-hospitalized 6 to 12 months after dietary counseling. The control group consisted of 42 normal weight peers. Anthropometric measurements and laboratory tests were performed, homeostasis model assessment - insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio were calculated.

resultsObese and overweight adolescents had higher white blood cells (WBC), neutrophil, monocyte counts and CRP concentration. In the backward stepwise regression analysis, body mass index standard deviation score (BMI SDS) and fasting insulin concentration were independent predictors of WBC and neutrophil counts at the baseline. At the follow-up visit in 45 (54.8%) children, who had lost weight, decreases in WBC, neutrophil and monocyte counts and CRP, fasting insulin, total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglycerides (TG) concentrations were observed. Changes in WBC and neutrophil counts were dependent on changes in HOMA-IR and TG/HDL ratio. Changes in HOMA-IR had a significant impact on changes in the monocyte count.

conclusionsAdipose tissue promotes systemic inflammation and its intensity depends on the degree of obesity and insulin resistance. This state is reversible. Changes in HOMA-IR were independent predictors of changes in WBC, neutrophil and monocyte counts after reduction of body weight.
