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

backgroundBariatric surgery (BS) has been shown to ameliorate health-related quality of life and eating disorder symptoms. However, the correlation of these changes with weight loss is not uniform, suggesting that additional factors have an impact on postoperative outcomes.

objectiveTo assess the impact of BS on eating disorder symptoms at 1 year postoperatively and to generate predictive models for the achievement of optimal eating behavior.

methodsRetrospective cohort study on a prospectively collected database of all consecutive patients who underwent primary BS in our academic center between January 2015 and March 2017. Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) was used to measure eating psychopathology. Logistic regression was used to estimate the odds ratio of achieving "healthy" EDE-Q at 1 year. Missing data was handled by multiple imputations for the regression model.

resultsTwo-hundred thirty-four patients were included. A complete-case analysis in 135 cases showed a "healthy" EDE-Q in 27.4% at baseline and in 83.7% at 1 year (difference = 56.3%, P = 0.018). Only the baseline EDE-Q "healthy" status influenced significantly the odds of achieving "healthy" EDE-Q at 1 year (OR 6.7, 95% CI 1.18-38.14, P = 0.04).

conclusionBS seems to promote successful treatment of self-reported eating disorder symptoms during the first postoperative year. The achievement of optimal results is independent of age, sex, weight loss, obesity-related comorbidity status, surgical technique, or 30-day surgical complications. Future studies, using validated questionnaires specifically designed to investigate eating behavior after BS and/or direct measurements of the eating behavior are needed to clarify the underlying neuropsychologic mechanisms that drive the observed postoperative changes.
