Longitudinal Weight Gain and Related Risk Behaviors during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Adults in the US.
Trial report in Nutrients, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06252558 (Do Symbiotics Provide Helpful Benefits in Gastrointestinal Related Issues in Weight Loss Surgery Patients?), which is not on this map. Cited by 123 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.

Abstract
Cross-sectional analyses have shown increased obesogenic behaviors and a potential for weight gain during COVID-19 related peak-lockdown (March-May 2020), but longitudinal data are lacking. This study assessed longitudinal changes in body weight and lifestyle behaviors in the US adults during the pandemic.
methodsWe used Qualtrics survey to collect self-reported data on body weight, dietary, physical activity, and psychological variables (
resultsBody weight increased (+0.62 kg;
conclusionWe show that the COVID-19 lockdown periods disrupted weight management among many Americans and that associated health effects are likely to persist.
