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

One in five children and adolescents in the United States are diagnosed with obesity and nearly 6% of them are being classified under the severe obesity category. With over 7% of severe obesity being attributed to genetic disorders, in this review we aim to focus on monogenic and syndromic obesity: its etiology, wide spectrum of clinical presentation, criticalness of early identification, and limited management options. Advanced genetic testing methods including microarray and whole genome sequencing are imperative to identify the spectrum of mutations and develop targeted treatment strategies including personalized multidisciplinary care, use of investigational drugs, and explore surgical options in this unique subset of severe pediatric obesity.
