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

Pediatric obesity is a growing health concern that has many secondary adverse health implications. Personalized medicine is a tool that can be used to optimize diagnosis and treatments of many diseases. In this review, we will focus on three areas related to the genetics of pediatric obesity: (i) genetic causes predisposing to pediatric obesity, (ii) pharmacogenomics that may predict weight gain associated with pharmacotherapy, and (iii) pharmacogenomics of anti-obesity pharmacotherapy. This narrative review evaluates genetic cause of pediatric obesity and how genetic findings can be used to optimize pharmacotherapy to minimize weight gain and optimize obesity treatment in pediatric patients. Pediatric obesity has many genetic causes including genomic obesity syndromes and monogenic obesity disorders. Several genetic etiologies of obesity have current or emerging targeted genetic therapies. Pharmacogenomic (PGx) targets associated with pharmacotherapy-induced weight gain have been identified for antipsychotic, antiepileptic, antidepressant therapies, and steroids, yet to date no clinical guidelines exist for application use of PGx to tailor pharmacotherapy to avoid weight gain. As legislation evolves for genetic testing coverage and technology advances, this will decrease cost and expand access to genetic testing. This will result in identification of potential genetic causes of obesity and genes that predispose to pharmacotherapy-induced weight gain. Advances in precision medicine can ultimately lead to development of clinical practice guidelines on how to apply genetic findings to optimize pharmacotherapy to treat genetic targets of obesity and avoid weight gain as an adverse event associated with pharmacotherapy.
