Efficacy and Safety of Bariatric Surgery in Dutch People Living with HIV: a Retrospective Matched Cohort Analysis.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeObesity is rising among people with HIV (PLWH), sparking interest in bariatric surgery (BS) for this group. Yet, large-scale comparative research on BS outcomes in PLWH is lacking.
methodsWe performed a retrospective, matched cohort analysis in PLWH and HIV uninfected controls. Subjects were retrieved from the Dutch Audit for Treatment of Obesity (DATO) registry. Matching (1:7 ratio) included age (± 5-years), sex, body-mass index (BMI) of ± 3 kg/m
resultsTwenty-seven PLWH and 168 controls were included. At 1-year post-BS, 89% PLWH achieved ≥ 20%TWL, compared to 94% of controls (p = 0.4). Cumulative %TWL at 2-years post-BS were 82% and 92% in PLWH and controls, respectively (p = 0.2). Improvement rates in hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus were 50% and 86% in PLWH, versus 87% and 87% in controls. Full remission occurred in 20% and 71% of PLHIV, versus 49% and 44% of controls, respectively. No improvement or remission was observed for dyslipidaemia in PLHIV compared to 54% improvement and 29% remission in controls. Surgical complications were 0% in PLHIV and 13% (n = 21) in controls.
conclusionEfficacy and safety outcomes of BS were similar between PLWH and controls except for the lack of improvement in dyslipidaemia in PLWH.
