Bone mineral density in young adults 5 to 11 years after adolescent metabolic and bariatric surgery for severe obesity compared to peers.
Article in International journal of obesity (2005), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveMetabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is associated with decreased bone mineral density (BMD) in adults. The long-term impact of MBS during adolescence on BMD is unknown. We report bone health status 5 to 11 years after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) from the Teen-LABS study cohort.
methodsBetween 2016 and 2022, BMD was measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 106 young adults who had undergone MBS as adolescents. Volumetric BMD by peripheral quantitative computed tomography was measured on a subset. Ninety-one controls who had not undergone MBS were recruited for comparison.
resultsIn cases (RYGB: mean age 26.8 ± 1.9 years, mean BMI 42.1 ± 9.9 kg/m
conclusionBMD, especially of the hip and femoral neck, was lower in young adults who underwent MBS during adolescence compared to matched peers who had not undergone MBS. BMD Z-scores of the femoral neck were inversely associated with time since MBS but were not associated with BMI change.
