Cardiometabolic Health and Bariatric Surgery: A 25-Year Longitudinal Cohort Study in CARDIA Participants.

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
Objective: Compare longitudinal cardiometabolic health outcomes among individuals who underwent bariatric surgery (BarS) with nonsurgical controls. Background: BarS is well-established for inducing profound weight loss and improving cardiometabolic health, but it remains unclear whether patients achieve long-term cardiometabolic health consistent with the attained lower weight status. Methods: Cohort study participants who underwent any BarS procedure between 1987 and 2021 (n = 94) were paired with sex- and body mass index (BMI)-matched nonsurgical controls (n = 282) at the nearest postoperative cohort exam visit (2.8 ± 1.7 years following surgery). A mixed model tested differences between BarS cases and nonsurgical matched controls, adjusting for age, sex, race, field center, and maximal education attainment. Intermediate cardiometabolic endpoints and incident diabetes and metabolic syndrome, were examined at follow-up exam visits. Results: Approximately 7.5 years following their procedures, those who underwent BarS showed higher BMIs than matched controls (+2.8 kg/m Conclusions: We found no evidence of lasting adverse cardiometabolic health consequences of severe obesity in a sample of cohort participants who underwent a BarS procedure. On average, BarS cases showed features of better cardiometabolic health than postoperative-matched nonsurgical controls who followed a more moderate trajectory of obesity.
