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

objectiveTo examine differences in weight change and Body Mass Index (BMI) at 12 months among women in remission from endometrial cancer who enrolled in a behavioral weight loss (BWL) program and a matched patient control group.

methodsWomen (n = 22) were enrolled into the BWL program and were compared against a control group (n = 28) that accounted for age, BMI, cancer type, cancer stage, and treatment dates. The BWL program included weekly health coaching meetings that targeted nutrition, activity, and behavior change topics.

resultsWomen enrolled in the BWL program completed 28.3 ± 14.1 appointments over 12 months resulting in an average weight change of -14.2 ± 7.8 kg (-13.3 ± 7.4%) at 6 months and -16.4 ± 12.5 kg (-15.3 ± 11.4%) at 12 months (all p < 0.001). Women in the control group had a weight change of -1.7 ± 8.4 kg (-2.3 ± 7.6%) at 12 months which was significantly different than the BWL condition (p < 0.001). BMI was significantly reduced in the BWL group at 6 months (-4.8 ± 4.5,

conclusionsThe BWL program yielded clinically significant weight loss for endometrial cancer survivors. Future work should include longer follow up periods and include additional behavioral and psychosocial outcomes.
