Bone mineral density and normal-weight obesity syndrome: beyond body weight and body mass index.
Article in Journal of bone and mineral metabolism, 2023. 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
introductionThis study aimed to evaluate, for the first time, the bone profile of adult women and men with and without normal-weight obesity (NWO) syndrome and its association with bone health-related nutrient intake, anthropometry, and body composition. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study of adults aged between 20 and 59 years with normal body weight, separated according to body fat (BF) percentage into NWO and non-NWO syndrome groups. BF > 30% and > 19% were considered high for women and men, respectively. Socioeconomic, physical activity, food consumption, anthropometric, and body composition data were evaluated. Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney test and Pearson's χ
resultsThe sample consisted of 224 adults (69.2% women) with a median (interquartile range) age of 23 (21-25) years, 71% of whom had NWO syndrome. Compared with women, a higher percentage of men had a lower-than-expected spinal bone mineral density (BMD) Z-score for age (10%; p = 0.0214). Bone parameters were similar between groups. Spinal BMD was negatively associated with male sex and positively associated with body weight. The femoral BMD was negatively associated with BF percentage and positively associated with body mass index.
conclusionThe negative association of BMD with BF percentage may suggest a higher risk of bone alterations in individuals with NWO syndrome and should be monitored over time.
