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

objectiveThis study aims to explore the relationship between age and whether the percentage of total weight loss (TWL%) is ≥ 25% or not at 1 year after bariatric surgery (BS). We aimed to provide evidence for the stratified treatment of spatients with obesity at different ages.

methodsThe primary outcome evaluated was whether TWL% was no less than 25% at 1 year after BS. A TWL% ≥ 25% was defined as a satisfied TWL% outcome. Logistic regression analysis and the restricted cubic spline (RCS) function were used to analyze the relationship between age and the satisfied TWL% outcome at 1 year after BS.

resultsTwo hundred and ninety-one patients were included in our study. After adjusting for potential confounders, the odds ratios (ORs) of the corresponding quartiles of age associated with satisfied TWL% outcome were 1.00 (reference), 1.117 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 0.540-2.311], 1.378 (95% CI = 0.647-2.935), and 0.406 (95% CI = 0.184-0.895). RCS analysis revealed a non-linear inverted L-shaped association between age and satisfied TWL% outcome at 1 year after BS (non-linear P = 0.033).

conclusionAge was an independent predictor of satisfied TWL% outcome one year following BS, and our study considered 32 years as a potential cut-off point. For Chinese patients over the age of 32 who are eligible for BS, it may be beneficial to do BS earlier as the probability of achieving a satisfied TWL% outcome may decrease with age.
