Impaired nitric oxide-dependent endothelial function in young male individuals with obesity before the onset of symptoms and complications.
Article in Experimental physiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Endothelial dysfunction drives obesity-related complications. Doppler ultrasound measurement of blood flow during 1-min passive leg movements (PLM) is a valuable non-invasive tool for assessing endothelial function and nitric oxide (NO)-mediated vasodilation. The objectives of this work were t o identify endothelial dysfunction biomarkers in young individuals with obesity (OB) using the PLM test; to evaluate the effects of a rehabilitation programme on these biomarkers; and to explore associations between PLM data, oxidative metabolism and blood biomarkers of microvascular impairment. Fifteen male OB (age 17 ± 4 years; body mass 121.4 ± 24.1 kg; body mass index 39.3 ± 7.5 kg m
