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

Object: Despite abundant literature demonstrating a high prevalence of obesity and overweight in people with bipolar disorder (BD), little is known about this topic in China. Therefore, we assessed the prevalence and associated factors of obesity and overweight among inpatients with BD in our hospital, one of the largest public psychiatric hospitals in China. Methods: In this retrospective, cross-sectional study, 1,169 inpatients ≥18 years with BD during 2019 were included. Obesity was defined as having a BMI ≥25 kg/m Results: The prevalence of obesity and overweight was 21.0% and 32.2% in patients with BD, respectively. Compared to patients with overweight and normal weight, patients with obesity were older, had a longer duration of BD and a longer length of hospital stay, had a higher prevalence of diabetes and hypertension, and had a higher level of all metabolic indices, except for HDL cholesterol. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that duration of BD, uric acid, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), triglyceride, and LDL cholesterol were significantly associated with obesity, and male sex and uric acid level were significantly associated with overweight ( Conclusions: Obesity and overweight were fairly prevalent in Chinese BD patients, and several factors were related to obesity and overweight. The results of the present study call for the need to implement early screening, prevention and interventions for obesity and overweight in patients with BD in China.
