1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Obesity has become a common public health problem all over the world today. In recent years, studies on the genetic etiology of obesity have gained importance. As a result of these studies, 127 obesity-related loci have been identified. Objectives: The aim of this work was to screen obesity-related genes and review the literature. Methods: In this retrospective study, 41 obesity-related genes were screened in 116 patients by next-generation sequencing. These genes are Results: Seventy-six of our patients were female, and 40 were male. As a result, 43 variants were detected in 39 (34.4%) patients. Of these, Conclusions: Understanding the genetics of obesity is an essential step toward treating and preventing this disease, which has become a global health problem. With this study, we wanted to contribute to the literature by reporting previously reported and novel variants we detected in our patients with obesity.
