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

backgroundThe efficacy of bariatric surgery in moderate and severe obesity patients to reach diabetes remission is clear, but for mild obesity patients, the choice of surgical and non-surgical treatment is still unclear. This study we aim to compare the effect of surgical and nonsurgical treatment on patients BMI < 35 kg/m

methodWe searched relevant articles publish between Jan 1,2010 and Jan 1, 2023 in the following databases: Embase, PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Cochrane Library. We got the OR, MD and P-value using random effect model to compare the efficiency between bariatric surgery and nonsurgical treatment on diabetes remission, the reduction of BMI, Hb1Ac and FPG.

resultsIn 7 included studies including 544 participants, bariatric surgery is more effective than non-surgical treatment to reach diabetes remission [OR 25.06, 95%CL 9.58-65.54]. Bariatric surgery more likely resulted in significant reductions in HbA1c [MD -1.44, 95%CL (-1.84)-(-1.04)] and FPG [MD -2.61, 95%CL (-3.20)-(-2.20)]. Bariatric surgery may resulted in reductions in BMI [MD -3.14, 95%CL (-4.41)-(-1.88)], which more significant in Asian.
