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

Post liver transplant obesity is associated with the development of metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and is a strong predictor of post-transplant mortality. Anti-obesity pharmacotherapy could serve as an effective adjunct to lifestyle modification in the post-transplant setting. Currently, utilization of anti-obesity medication in post liver transplant patients is limited by scarce data on their efficacy and safety in the post-transplant setting. Newer classes of anti-obesity medications, including the glucagon-like peptide 1 agonists (GLP-1) do not only help with weight loss but are effective anti-diabetic agents and are in further development for their potential hepatoprotective and renoprotective effects and reduction in cardiovascular risk. The objective of this manuscript was to critically review the efficacy and safety of anti-obesity pharmacotherapy in post-liver transplant patients.
