Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banded plication: a case-matched comparative study with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

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
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has been accepted as stand-alone restrictive bariatric procedure; laparoscopic adjustable gastric banded plication (LAGBP) is an innovative technique combining gastric banding and plication of the stomach. This study aims to compare LAGBP with LSG in terms of percent excess weight loss (%EWL), resolution of comorbidities, and complications. This study was conducted in a university hospital. We retrospectively analyzed data of 60 patients: 30 each receiving LSG and LAGBP between May 2009 to October 2010. Demographics, operative data, complications, % EWL, and resolution of comorbidities were analyzed and compared. All the patients were followed for at least 1 year. LSG and LAGBP were matched for age, sex, body mass index and comorbidity ratio. Mean operative time was significantly longer in LAGBP: 62.45 ± 30.1 vs. 86.01 ± 21.88 (p = 0.001). Both groups had similar complication rates (6.67 %) and most of the patients achieved significant resolution of comorbidities. The mean %EWL was statistically significant for LSG till 18 months follow-up as compared to LAGBP, but there was no difference at 2 years (p = 0.971). Mean frequency of band adjustment after LAGBP in 2 years was 1.50 ± 1.51. There was no significant difference in comorbidity resolution in both groups. LAGBP is a dual restrictive bariatric procedure offering similar results with LSG at 2 years in terms of complications, % EWL, and comorbidity resolution with potential of continual weight loss due to band.
