Robotic gastric bypass in a primary care hospital: initial experience and outcomes from 60 consecutive Italian adults.
Observational study in Journal of robotic surgery, 2026. 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
Obesity remains a major public health challenge in Italy, and robotic-assisted metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) is gaining increasing attention for its potential advantages in precision and recovery. However, data on short-term outcomes from Italian centres are still limited. This study aimed to evaluate six-month postoperative outcomes of robotic gastric bypass in Italian adults, focusing on weight and BMI reduction, and exploring subgroup differences by gender and comorbidity status. This retrospective observational study was conducted at a primary care hospital in Italy and included 60 consecutive adult patients who underwent robotic gastric bypass with complete six-month follow-up. Demographic data, surgical details, and anthropometric measures (weight and BMI) were collected at baseline, two months, and six months postoperatively. Subgroup analyses were performed according to gender and comorbidity status. Repeated-measures ANOVA and appropriate comparative analyses were used to assess statistical significance. The cohort was predominantly female (68.33%), with a mean age of 48.2 ± 10.3 years. The mean baseline weight and BMI were 128.4 ± 29.7 kg and 45.9 ± 9.2 kg/m
