Does Sleeve Gastrectomy Increase the Risk of Barret's Esophagus?
Article in Obesity surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposeSleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the most commonly performed bariatric surgical procedure worldwide. However, the impact of SG on Barrett's esophagus (BE) remains unknown. The main objective was to determine the rate of BE 5 years after SG. MATERIALS AND
methodsPatients, operated in 2012 by SG in one center, who preoperatively and postoperatively (5 years) underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGIE), 24-h pH monitoring, and esophageal manometry, were included.
resultsA total of 59 (81.4% of females) patients were included. Preoperative mean age and body mass index were 45.2 ± 11.7 years and 45.2 ± 8.1 kg/m
conclusionsThis study highlights the incidence of postoperative GERD and endoscopic lesions following SG. Even though SG is not contraindicated in case of reflux, GERD patients who undergo SG may be supervised by a close endoscopic surveillance.
