The hidden burden: incidentalomas detected on abdominopelvic computed tomography in bariatric surgery candidates - a single-center experience.
Observational study in Journal of medicine and life, 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
Bariatric surgery (BS) is currently one of the major breakthroughs in the management of patients with morbid obesity, showing outstanding long-term results. While an abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) aims to analyze fat distribution and anatomical integrity during a preoperative evaluation, incidentalomas are unexpected tumors or abnormalities discovered by chance on imaging. The purpose of this study was to present our institution's experience with incidental findings detected during preoperative CT evaluations in patients who are candidates for BS. In our retrospective, observational study, we analyzed preoperative CT images from 131 patients eligible for BS and selected only those diagnosed with incidentalomas. Among the 29 obese patients (89.7% female; mean age, 39.0 ± 11.6 years; mean BMI, 38.5 ± 4.6 kg/m
