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: The fat mass and obesity-associated ( Objective: This study aimed to determine the distribution of the Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 684 unrelated adults from West Mexico were included. Subjects were grouped as Amerindian (Wixárika and Nahuas) or admixed: Mestizo-Caucasians (Cuquío, San Miguel-Los Altos, and Villa Purificación) and Mestizo-Guadalajara (Mestizo-GDL). Results: The Wixárika group had the highest frequencies of the T allele (94%) and TT genotype (89%) among Amerindians, followed by mestizos from GDL (74% and 56%, respectively). In contrast, Mestizo-Caucasians from Cuquío had the highest A allele frequency (32.4%). No significant effect of the FTO genotype on body mass index (BMI)/body fat was observed in the Mestizo-GDL population. However, the TT carriers exhibited higher waist-to-height ratios (0.52 ± 0.07 vs. 0.49 ± 0.08), insulin levels (10.8 Conclusion: The
