The impact of a preoperative evaluation process on weight reduction and glycemic control in patients undergoing bariatric and metabolic surgery.

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
Introduction: Metabolic surgery is a sustainable intervention for obesity and type 2 diabetes. Preoperative education optimizes weight loss and glycemic control outcomes. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of a generalized preoperative evaluation process (PEP) in patients who underwent bariatric surgery on weight loss and glycemic control pre- and post-surgery. Methods: Data were retrospectively collected and analyzed for patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent bariatric surgery between 2010 and 2016. Patients were categorized into two groups determined by participation in the PEP. The groups were named the PEP group and non-PEP group. The correlation among engagement in the PEP was determined using the chi-square test and Results: 129 patients were included in the study; 86 females (67%) and 43 males (33%). Fifty-nine patients (46%) engaged in the PEP and 70 (54%) patients did not engage in the PEP. A greater reduction in weight loss was observed in the PEP group versus the non-PEP group from initial enrollment to pre-surgery (14.3 ± 9.2 kg vs. 11.6 ± 9.2 kg; Conclusion: The PEP was not associated with improvements in short-term weight loss or glycemic control pre-surgery and a 2-years post-surgery. Patients may benefit from individually tailored preoperative weight management strategies.
