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

backgroundThe effect of bariatric surgery on the glycemic control of patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus is obvious. However, the effect in patients with body mass index (BMI) < 30 kg/m

methodsWe performed a literature search in Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library from January 2000 to March 2018. All the studies involving the effect of bariatric surgery on patients with type 2 diabetes and BMI < 30 kg/m

resultsTwelve studies including 697 patients were examined in this meta-analysis. Clinical indexes in 6, 12, and 24 months follow-up were analyzed, respectively. BMI and waist circumference reduced by 2.88 kg/m

conclusionsAsian patients with type 2 diabetes and BMI < 30 kg/m
