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

introductionThe rise in global obesity is a major concern with particular implications for female reproductive health. Obesity is considered a risk factor for menstrual disturbances, female infertility, and reduced success rate of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs). Weight reduction represents a promising therapeutic approach for addressing infertility in female patients who are obese. Nowadays, bariatric surgery is regarded as the most efficacious long-term intervention for morbid obesity, leading to enhanced reproductive health. The impact of bariatric surgery in terms of association and management has also been sparsely studied, and evidence regarding OHSS management after bariatric surgery is limited, highlighting a literature gap.  Objective: Primarily, this study aimed to investigate the association of sleeve gastrectomy with patients who developed ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in terms of length of hospital stay.  Results: Interestingly, sleeve gastrectomy patients had longer hospital stays, averaging 5.3 ± 0.5 days, as compared to 3.3 ± 2.1 days among non-sleeve gastrectomy patients (p = 0.026).

conclusionThe association of sleeve gastrectomy with the management of OHSS manifested as a longer hospital stay. We hypothesize that the reduced oral fluid tolerance after the sleeve gastrectomy may contribute to the increased length of hospital stay.
