Health-Related Quality of Life in Those with Persistent or Transient Obesity Phenotypes during Two Decades: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study.
Article in Obesity facts, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe current study aimed to investigate the association of three stable obesity phenotypes (persistent metabolically healthy normal weight [P MHNW], persistent metabolically healthy obese [P MHO], persistent metabolically unhealthy obese [P MUO]), and one transient (MHO to MUO) obesity phenotype throughout 18 years with health-related quality of life (HRQoL).
methods1,932 participants (649 men and 1,283 women) who completed the HRQoL questionnaire during 2016-2019 were recruited in the current investigation. Based on the body mass index and metabolic status, participants were classified into four obesity phenotypes, including (1) P MHNW, (2) P MHO, (3) P MUO, and (4) transient from MHO to MUO. The HRQoL was compared between groups using analysis of covariance. Participants' age, marital status, occupation status, education level, physical activity, and smoking were adjusted.
resultsAfter adjustment for confounder variables, a significant difference among obesity phenotypes was indicated in (physical component summary) PCS scores of both sexes and (mental component summary) MCS scores just in women (p value = <0.001). The P MUO had the lowest scores in PCS and MCS, and P MHO had the highest MCS scores compared to other obesity phenotypes in either sex.
conclusionThe results of the present study indicate the negative effect of long-term concurrence of obesity and metabolic disorders on the HRQoL of adults. However, long-term obesity alone or loss of metabolic health in the short term did not affect individuals' assessment of their physical and mental health. These findings highlight the importance of preventive interventions in people with obesity; also indicate the need for awareness-raising strategies about healthy lifestyles to improve the quality of life in society.
