Lipidome Profiling in Childhood Obesity Compared to Adults: A Pilot Study.
Article in Nutrients, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The objective is to assess the circulating lipidome of children with obesity before and after lifestyle intervention and to compare the data to the circulating lipidome of adults with obesity before and after bariatric surgery. Ten pediatric (PE) and thirty adult (AD) patients with obesity were prospectively recruited at a referral single center. The PE cohort received lifestyle recommendations. The AD cohort underwent bariatric surgery. Clinical parameters and lipidome were analyzed in serum before and after six months of metabolic intervention. The abundance of phosphatidylinositols in the PE cohort and phosphatidylcholines in the AD significantly increased, while O-phosphatidylserines in the PE cohort and diacyl/triacylglycerols in the AD decreased. Fifteen lipid species were coincident in both groups after lifestyle intervention and bariatric surgery. Five species of phosphatidylinositols, sphingomyelins, and cholesteryl esters were upregulated. Eight species of diacylglycerols, glycerophosphoglycerols, glycerophosphoethanolamines, and phosphatidylcholines were downregulated. Most matching species were regulated in the same direction except for two phosphatidylinositols: PI(O-36:2) and PI(O-34:0). A specific set of lipid species regulated after bariatric surgery in adult individuals was also modulated in children undergoing lifestyle intervention, suggesting they may constitute a core circulating lipid profile signature indicative of early development of obesity and improvement after clinical interventions regardless of individual age.
