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

purposeMetabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) is an effective treatment for obesity and obesity-related diseases, but long-term data on its outcomes remain limited, particularly in Poland. These data are crucial for understanding the durability of weight loss, trends in weight regain, and comorbidity remission, as well as for refining surgical techniques and improving long-term care. This study aims to evaluate the 10-year outcomes of MBS in Poland, focusing on weight loss and remission of obesity-related diseases in patients who completed follow-up. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis multicenter retrospective study, named BARI-10-POL, analyzed 485 patients (mean age: 41.0 years, 71.5% female, median BMI: 43.4 kg/m²) who underwent laparoscopic MBS between 2008 and 2014 across five bariatric centers. Data collected included demographics, type of surgery, weight loss (%TWL, %EWL), and remission of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and hypertension (HT).

resultsThe follow-up rate was 28.5% (485/1703). Among the procedures, 317 (65.4%) were sleeve gastrectomies (SG). The median %EWL and %TWL were 59.2% and 22.8%, respectively. Revisional procedures were required in 23.9% of patients, most commonly after SG (24.3%) and adjustable gastric banding (100%). The remission rates for T2D and HT were 70.8% and 56.7%, respectively. One anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) demonstrated superior median %EWL (80.1%) compared to SG (55.0%, p < 0.001) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) (51.4%, p < 0.001).

conclusionsConducting long-term follow-up after bariatric surgery is challenging. MBS leads to significant long-term outcomes in both weight loss and remission of obesity-related diseases.
