Comparison of the impact of longitudinal body mass index changes on cardiac arrest risk between normal and overweight populations.
Article in Journal of cachexia, sarcopenia and muscle, 2024. 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
backgroundBeing overweight is a key modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, the impact of longitudinal changes in body mass index (BMI) on the risk of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) remains unclear, especially among overweight populations.
methodsThis nested case-control study utilized data from the Korean National Health Information Database between 2009 and 2018. A total of 23 453 OHCA patients, who underwent national health check-ups within 1 and 2-4 years before OHCA occurrence, and 31 686 controls, who underwent similar national health check-ups, were included. The study population was matched for sex, age and survival status. Conditional logistic regression was employed to analyse the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of each BMI per cent change in assessing the risk of OHCA occurrence within 1 year.
resultsA reverse J-shaped association between BMI per cent change and OHCA risk was observed, even among overweight populations. Among the overweight populations, weight loss significantly increased OHCA risk, with ORs (95% CI) of 4.10 (3.23-5.20) for severe weight loss (BMI decrease > 15%), 2.72 (2.33-3.17) for moderate weight loss (BMI decrease 10-15%) and 1.46 (1.35-1.59) for mild weight loss (BMI decrease 5-10%). Conversely, mild weight gain (BMI increase 5-10%) did not significantly increase OHCA risk. The impact of weight changes on the occurrence of OHCA differed by sex, being more prominent in males.
conclusionsSignificant weight changes within a 4-year period increase the risk of OHCA with a reverse J-shaped association, even among overweight and obese individuals. Maintaining a stable weight could be a reliable public health strategy irrespective of the weight status, particularly for males.
