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
introductionLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is recently a leading method in surgical treatment of morbid obesity. The metabolic outcome of intervention may be a result of many factors such as age, gender, preoperative weight loss and dietary restrictions.
aimTo evaluate gender-related differences in the results of LSG in 6-month follow-up. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study included 101 patients who underwent LSG at the University Clinical Hospital of Bialystok. Patients were divided and analyzed in 2 groups: males (n = 48) and females (n = 53). The primary analysis included the influence of gender on postoperative weight loss calculated using the percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) and excess BMI loss (%EBMIL). For secondary outcomes the levels of glucose, insulin, glycated hemoglobin, aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglycerides and C-reactive protein were analyzed.
resultsA significant influence of patients' gender was proved for both %EWL (p = 0.026) and %EBMIL (p = 0.001). Females had significantly higher %EWL in 6-month follow-up than males (p = 0.0034). The analysis also showed significantly higher %EBMIL for women at 3 and 6 months observation (p = 0.022 and p < 0.001 respectively).
conclusionsLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is an effective method of obesity treatment especially in terms of postoperative weight loss. Females seem to benefit more from the procedure when analyzing the parameters of body mass reduction. However, further research is needed to provide strong evidence of an association between gender and the results of LSG.
