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

purposeTo perform a meta-analysis of the literature to evaluate the prevalence of cerebrovascular comorbidities between patients undergoing bariatric surgery and those not undergoing bariatric surgery. MATERIALS AND

methodsStudies about the risk of cerebrovascular disease both before and after bariatric surgery were systematically explored in multiple electronic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase, from the time of database construction to May 2022.

resultsSeventeen studies with 3,124,063 patients were finally included in the meta-analysis. There was a statistically significant reduction in cerebrovascular event risk following bariatric surgery (OR 0.68; 95% CI 0.58 to 0.78; I

conclusionOur meta-analysis suggested that bariatric surgery for severe obesity was associated with a reduced risk of cerebrovascular events in the USA, Sweden, the UK, and Germany. Bariatric surgery significantly reduced the risk of cerebrovascular events within 5 years, but there was no significant difference in the risk of cerebrovascular events for 5 or more years after bariatric surgery in the USA.
