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

backgroundBariatric surgery is an effective treatment for severe obesity but is associated with an increased risk for development of eating disorders. Indeed, numerous maladaptive eating behaviors and eating disorders have been described following bariatric surgery. However, the differentiation of pathologic eating patterns from expected dietary changes following bariatric surgery can sometimes be difficult to discern. CASE SUMMARY: A female in her early 40s presented for medical stabilization of severe protein calorie malnutrition after losing 52.3 kg over the last six months after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, with subsequent development of cyclic nausea and vomiting. Fear of these aversive physical symptoms led to further restriction of nutritional intake and weight loss. The patient was diagnosed with avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder, which has not been previously reported after bariatric surgery.

conclusionImprovement in the diagnostic nomenclature for feeding and eating disorders is warranted for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery.
