Influence of the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Gene Polymorphism on Weight Loss Following Intragastric Balloon Intervention: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Diabetes, metabolic syndrome and obesity : targets and therapy, 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
Background and Aim: There is noticeable heterogeneity in weight loss outcomes following intragastric balloon (IGB) treatment, with average weight loss ranging between 11% to 15% of total body weight. Genetic variations associated with obesity have been found to influence weight loss response, however such variations are limited. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the impact of the obesity associated Methods: In this cross-sectional study, Results: A total of 71 participants completed the 3-month follow-up assessment (loss to follow-up: 33%). This study found a significant association between the Conclusion: Our results suggest that
