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

Background A considerable subpopulation of patients with morbid obesity present with dyslipidemia. It is characterized by elevated total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is considered a method of treating morbid obesity and associated dyslipidemia. Objective To assess the effect of bariatric and metabolic surgery on lipid profile of morbidly obese patients. Methods We used a retrospective approach analyzing the lipid profiles of patients who underwent SG between January 2018 and July 2020. Patients were enrolled according to age (>17 years), pre-operative body mass index (BMI; >30 kg/m
