The relationship between physical activity, sedentary time, and cognitive function following bariatric surgery.
Article in Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery, 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
backgroundObesity is associated with cognitive impairment. Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) improves cognitive functioning and weight loss is not a primary mechanism. Physical activity (PA) and sedentary time (ST) may play an important role in cognitive outcomes following MBS, though few studies have examined this possibility.
objectivesProspectively examine the relationship among PA, ST, and cognitive function following MBS, as well as possible sex differences in these associations.
settingData were collected at 2 health centers in the United States.
methodsMBS patients (n = 138, 42.9 ± 10.5 years of age, body mass index of 46.3 ± 7.3 kg/m
resultsTotal attrition rate was 33.3%. Multilevel modeling showed that ST was negatively associated with List Sorting Working Memory (β
conclusionsThe current study links ST and MVPA to cognitive function, though ST was both positively and negatively associated with test performance. Such findings suggest a role for movement and activity levels in cognitive outcomes following MBS, though further investigation is needed to clarify possible mechanisms.
