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

purposeTo estimate the association between changes in BMI and changes in Health-Related Quality of Life (EQ-5D-3L).

methodsThe WRAP trial was a multicentre, randomised controlled trial with parallel design and recruited 1267 adults (BMI ≥ 28 kg/m

resultsA unit increase in BMI was associated with a - 0.011 (95% CI - 0.01546, - 0.00877) change in EQ-5D-3L. A unit change in BMI between periods of observation was associated with - 0.016 017 (95% CI - 0.0077009, - 0.025086) change in EQ-5D-3L. The negative association was reduced during weight loss, as opposed to weight gain, but the difference was not statistically significant.

conclusionsWe have identified a strong and statistically significant negative relationship between BMI changes and HRQoL. These estimates could be used in economic evaluations of weight loss interventions to inform policymaking. CLINICAL

trial registrationThis trial was registered with Current Controlled Trials, number ISRCTN82857232.
