Interplay between genetic risk and built neighborhood conditions as predictor of BMI across the transition into adulthood.
Article in Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveWe examined BMI development across changes in the built environment during the transition from adolescence to young adulthood and explored the moderating role of genetic risk.
methodsWe used longitudinal data from individuals aged 16 to 25 years in the TRacking Adolescents' Individual Lives Survey (TRAILS) that we linked to built environment data for 2006, 2010, and 2016 from the Geoscience and Health Cohort Consortium (GECCO). We fitted a latent growth model of BMI and examined associations of changes in fast-food restaurant density and walkability with changes in BMI (n = 2735), as well as interactions of changes in fast-food restaurant density and walkability with genetic risk (n = 1676).
resultsChanges in fast-food restaurant density (e.g., Δ2010-2006: β = -0.04, 95% CI: -0.11 to 0.03) and walkability (e.g., Δ2010-2006: β = -0.05, 95% CI: -0.14 to 0.05) were not associated with BMI changes. Additionally, genetic risk did not moderate these associations.
conclusionsWe found limited evidence that moving to neighborhoods with higher fast-food restaurant density or less walkability was associated with BMI changes or that genetic risk moderated these associations. Our findings suggest that associations between the built environment and BMI changes during the transition into young adulthood are likely small.
