Association of Weight Loss and Physical Activity With A1C Reduction in a Diabetes Prevention Program: A Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial.
Article in Diabetes, obesity, and cardiometabolic CARE. 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
objectiveWeight loss and physical activity (PA) reduce diabetes risk, but their independent contributions to A1C reduction in prediabetes are not fully quantified. This study examined the associations between weight loss, PA, and the odds of achieving A1C reduction thresholds during a lifestyle intervention. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsThis secondary analysis used data from a randomized clinical trial. Participants (
resultsA dose-dependent relationship was observed between weight loss and A1C reduction. Compared with no weight loss, substantial weight loss (>5%) was associated with increased odds of lowering A1C across all thresholds (≥0.1% to ≥0.4%; odds ratio [OR] range 6.36-9.49, all
conclusionsThese findings support that weight loss may be the primary driver of improved glycemic control in individuals with prediabetes, underscoring the importance of prioritizing weight loss in lifestyle interventions.
