Renal Outcomes After Sleeve Gastrectomy versus Gastric Bypass in Patients with Nephropathy: Results from a Retrospective Study.
Article in Obesity 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
introductionThe influence of metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) on renal damage remains poorly understood. Data on the impact of different types of MBS on renal markers is limited. This study analyzes the effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on traditional (urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (uACR), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)) and new markers (serum uromodulin (sUMOD), serum kidney injury molecule-1 (sKIM-1)) of kidney function in a retrospective cohort of patients with nephropathy.
methods50 patients (RYGB n = 25; SG n = 25) with renal involvement, defined as microalbuminuria (uACR > 3 mg/mmol) and/or reduced eGFR (< 60 ml/min) were included. Patients were matched for sex, age, body mass index (BMI) and glycemic control. Kidney function was assessed using creatinine, cystatin C, eGFR, uACR, sUMOD and sKIM-1.
resultsAfter a mean follow-up of 28.8 ± 6.1 months, renal involvement completely resolved in 48% after SG (p<.001) compared to 68% after RYGB (p<.001). UACR decreased after both procedures (SG -9.9 ± 23.2 mg/mmol, p=.002; RYGB − 14.4 ± 28.9 mg/mmol, p<.001) without a difference between procedures (p=.923). SUMOD and sKIM-1 improved significantly after SG (p=.025, p=.028).
conclusionsIn this study, MBS was associated with improved nephropathy outcomes, independent of the type of procedure performed. SUMOD emerges as a promising biomarker to predict renal recovery.
