Prevalence and associated factors of adult overweight and obesity in Southwestern China.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Data on the prevalence of overweight and obesity in Southwestern China were limited. The aims of this study were to estimate the prevalence of overweight/obesity and their associated factors in this area. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from 2013 to 2014 in Chengdu and Chongqing, two megacities in Southwestern China. Data were obtained from questionnaires, physical examinations and lab tests. A total of 11,096 residents aged 35-79 years were included in the final analysis of this study. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among adults aged 35-79 years in Southwestern China were 29.7 and 4.4%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis suggested that women, non-smokers, ex-smokers, being hypertensive and diabetic were related to higher obesity prevalence, and that physically active adults and those aged 65-79 years were less likely to have obesity. Conclusion: Obesity and overweight were prevalent in Southwestern China, especially among women, those with diabetes and/or hypertension, and those who have quitted smoking for more than 3 years.
