The Association of Serum Irisin with Impaired Glucose Before and After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Obesity.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundTo demonstrate the association of irisin levels with impaired glucose before and after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in patients with obesity.
methodsThirty-six patients with obesity undergoing LSG were included. We tested the irisin levels before and after LSG and conducted an evaluation of baseline irisin levels with elevated glucose as well as irisin changes with weight loss and its association with glucose control after LSG.
resultsAnthropometric measurements, body fat index, and metabolic parameters were significantly improved in 3 months following LSG (all p < 0.05). Baseline irisin levels were significantly higher in obesity with elevated fasting glucose than that with normal glucose (2.98 [2.37, 3.63] vs. 3.72 [3.06, 5.32], p = 0.031). After adjustment for sex, gender, and body mass index (BMI), obesity with higher irisin levels was prone to have impaired fasting glucose (OR = 2.499, 95% CI = 1.047-5.964). According to receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity of baseline irisin levels on impaired fasting glucose were 75% and 77.8%. Irisin levels decreased from 3.29 (2.67, 4.43) to 2.82 (2.41, 3.25) ng/mL (p = 0.009) after LSG. The decreases of weight, BMI, and FFA were more in irisin changes group (△irisin ≥ 0.5) than in no irisin changes group (△irisin < 0.5). And △irisin was negatively associated with postprandial glucose (PG) at 3 months after LSG (0.5 h-PG, r = - 0.478, p = 0.029; 2 h-PG, r = - 0.406, p = 0.017).
conclusionsElevated baseline irisin levels indicated the impaired glucose in obesity. The decrease of irisin with weight loss provided more evidence for the contribution of serum irisin secretion by fat mass in obesity.
