Gastric sleeve and gastric bypass: changes in weight after two-year follow-up - which is more effective?
Article in Arquivos brasileiros de cirurgia digestiva : ABCD = Brazilian archives of digestive surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundBariatric surgery is currently the gold standard for the treatment of obesity. However, weight recurrence varies among the different surgical methods.
aimsTo compare changes in weight one and two years after bariatric surgery considering the gastric bypass and gastric sleeve methods.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted at a hospital with adults of both sexes followed up for two years after surgery. Anthropometric, sociodemographic, clinical, and lifestyle characteristics were analyzed.
resultsA total of 184 patients, predominantly women (82.1%), were assessed (136 submitted to gastric sleeve and 48 to gastric bypass). Good adherence to the multivitamin, but not to diet or physical activity, was verified in both groups. The percentages of weight loss and excess weight loss were higher in the gastric bypass group (one year after surgery: p<0.001 and p=0.010, respectively; two years after surgery: p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). Average weight gain was 2.37 kg and higher after gastric sleeve (p=0.042), whereas no difference between methods was found for the percentage of weight recurrence. Weight loss and recurrence at the two-year follow-up were influenced by diet in both groups. The percentage of weight loss was higher after gastric bypass one and two years after surgery. Weight recurrence was higher after the gastric sleeve method, without interfering with the surgical success of the technique.
conclusionsWe verified greater efficacy in the gastric bypass technique in terms of weight loss at 12 and 24 months postoperatively. Weight recurrence was found 24 months after both methods, especially in the gastric sleeve group, without constituting surgical failure.
