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 is an efficient strategy for body weight and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) management. Abnormal lipid deposition in visceral organs, especially the pancreas and liver, might cause beta-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling allows adipose expansion, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play essential roles in ECM construction. MMP-2 and MMP-9 are the substrates of MMP-7. Different studies have reported that MMP-2, -7, and -9 increase in patients with obesity and metabolic syndromes or T2DM and are considered biomarkers in obesity and hyperglycemia patients.

aimTo prospectively investigate whether MMP-2, MMP-7, and MMP-9 differ after two bariatric surgeries: Gastric bypass (GB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG).

methodsWe performed GB in 23 and SG in 19 obese patients with T2DM. We measured body weight, waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), and serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood sugar (FBS), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), C-peptide, homeostasis model assessments of insulin resistance, and MMP-2, MMP-7, and MMP-9 levels at baseline and at 3, 12, and 24 mo post-operation.

resultsTwenty-three patients aged 44.7 ± 9.7 years underwent GB, and 19 patients aged 40.1 ± 9.1 years underwent SG. In the GB group, BMI decreased from 30.3 ± 3.4 to 24.4 ± 2.4 kg/m

conclusionImprovements in obesity and T2DM induced by bariatric surgery might be the result of MMP-2, -7, or -9 independent pathways.
