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

By 2035, more than one-half of the global population is expected to have overweight or obesity, amounting to a substantial $4 trillion toll on the global economy. The uptake of metabolic and bariatric surgery has increased worldwide, providing treatment for both obesity and associated disorders of metabolic function. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass are the most commonly performed metabolic and bariatric surgical procedures. Despite advances in surgical techniques, complications are common and can occur long after surgery. This article provides gastroenterologists with a comprehensive compendium for understanding and managing the complications associated with metabolic and bariatric surgery.
