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.

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.

Abstract

introductionWe aimed to describe the rationale, design, and overall baseline characteristics of the trial evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of survodutide in Chinese adults with overweight or obesity (SYNCHRONIZE™-CN, NCT06214741).

methodsIn this 76-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial, Chinese participants were randomized 1:1:1 to once-weekly subcutaneous survodutide (3.6 mg or 4.8 mg) or placebo plus lifestyle intervention. Participants with either body mass index (BMI) ≥ 28 kg/m

resultsAt baseline, participants (N = 306) had a mean age of 36.9 years, body weight 93.9 kg, waist circumference 105.6 cm, BMI 33.2 kg/m

conclusionsThis trial was designed to provide a robust evaluation of efficacy and safety of survodutide for the treatment of obesity or overweight in Chinese adults.
