The effect of weight reduction on the diabetes foot: A scoping review and clinical implications.
Article in Obesity pillars, 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: This scoping review aims to explore the literature available on rapid weight reduction (either via diet/exercise or bariatric surgery) on the diabetes foot. Methods: A search strategy was developed using Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome (PICO). A search using all identified keywords and index terms was performed on Cumulated Index in Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), PubMed, International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) and Web of Science (WoS) databases as well as Proquest, and Cochrane systematic reviews. A search of grey literature was also performed on Google Scholar and Internet explorer. No restrictions were placed on the date of publication. Results: There were few studies that explored the effects of weight reduction on the diabetes foot. Only 2 articles met the scoping review's inclusion criteria. These were a case study where the intervention was bariatric surgery and a case series study where the interventions were bariatric surgery or diet and exercise. Conclusion: This scoping review has highlighted the lack of research in this area, raising opportunities for further research that focus on the effects of rapid weight reduction (either following bariatric surgery or weight reduction and diet) on the diabetes foot. Patients with diabetes mellitus should receive individualised pre and post weight reduction care to their feet, either by a podiatrist or multidisciplinary care team.
