Effect of bariatric surgery on cardiac structure and function in obese patients: Role of the renin-angiotensin system.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Echocardiographic alterations have been described in obesity, but their modifications after bariatric surgery (BS) and mechanisms are little known, mostly in normotensive patients. We aimed to analyze cardiac changes 1 year post-BS and to explore possible mechanisms. A cohort of patients with severe obesity (58% normotensives) were prospectively recruited and examined before surgery and after 12 months. Clinical and echocardiographic data, 24 h BP, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) components, cytokines, and inflammatory markers were analyzed at these two time points. Overall reduction in body weight was mean (IQR) = 30.0% (25.9-33.8). There were statistically significant decreases in left ventricle mass index
