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
The risk of enteric hyperoxaluria is significantly increased after malabsorptive bariatric surgery (MBS). However, its underlying determinants are only poorly characterized. In this case-control study, we aimed at identifying clinical and genetic factors to dissect their individual contributions to the development of post-surgical hyperoxaluria. We determined the prevalence of hyperoxaluria and nephrolithiasis after MBS by 24-h urine samples and clinical questionnaires at our obesity center. Both hyperoxaluric and non-hyperoxaluric patients were screened for sequence variations in known and candidate genes implicated in hyperoxaluria (AGXT, GRHPR, HOGA1, SLC26A1, SLC26A6, SLC26A7) by targeted next generation sequencing (tNGS). The cohort comprised 67 patients, 49 females (73%) and 18 males (27%). While hyperoxaluria was found in 29 patients (43%), only one patient reported postprocedural nephrolithiasis within 41 months of follow-up. Upon tNGS, we did not find a difference regarding the burden of (rare) variants between hyperoxaluric and non-hyperoxaluric patients. However, patients with hyperoxaluria showed significantly greater weight loss accompanied by markers of intestinal malabsorption compared to non-hyperoxaluric controls. While enteric hyperoxaluria is very common after MBS, genetic variation of known hyperoxaluria genes contributes little to its pathogenesis. In contrast, the degree of postsurgical weight loss and levels of malabsorption parameters may allow for predicting the risk of enteric hyperoxaluria and consecutive kidney stone formation.
