Longitudinal Changes in Cardiac Structure and Function in Severe Obesity: 11-Year Follow-Up in the Utah Obesity Study.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Background Progressive cardiac remodeling and worsening myocardial function over time have been proposed as potential mediators of heart failure in obesity. Methods and Results We serially assessed cardiac structure and function in 254 subjects participating in a longitudinal study of obesity. Demographic, clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic features were determined at baseline and 2-, 6-, and 11-year follow-up. We measured body mass index (BMI) exposure as the area under the curve of the BMI at each of the 4 visits. At enrollment, mean age of the subjects was 47 years, 79% were women, mean BMI was 44 kg/m
