A Higher Phase Angle Is Associated with Greater Metabolic Equivalents in Women 1 Year After Bariatric Surgery.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundPhase angle (PhA), proposed as an indicator of the number, integrity, and function of cells and evaluated in some clinical situations, decreases after bariatric surgery (BS). In contrast, higher values are found in physically active or exercising individuals. We therefore evaluated the influence of physical activity on PhA after BS.
methodsThe PhA and body composition (obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis), physical activity level (obtained by International Physical Activity Questionnaire), and metabolic equivalents (METs) were evaluated in adult women submitted to BS. The PhA and body composition were evaluated at three time points: before and 6 and 12 months after surgery. Physical activity level and METs were measured at the two postoperative time points.
resultsA reduction in PhA was observed 6 (p < 0.01) and 12 months (p < 0.01) after BS, with no significant difference between time points. A moderate or high physical activity level was found in 81% of the volunteers after 6 months and in 65% after 12 months. METs were reduced after 12 months compared to 6 months. A positive correlation (p < 0.05) was observed between PhA and body cell mass after surgery. There was a significant positive correlation (p < 0.01) between PhA and METs after 12 months.
conclusionsPhysical activity may attenuate the PhA reduction that occurs after BS, with this parameter reflecting the engagement of these patients in this type of activity.
