[Body contouring surgery in the massive weight loss patient].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
An increasing number of patients desire body contouring surgery after massive weight loss, whether from bariatric surgery or a change in lifestyle. The fact that many body regions lose their elasticity and tissue-tension has led to stepwise treatments including abdominoplasty, thigh lift, buttocks and hip lift or liposuction. However, these procedures often do not treat the reason for the deformities. The lower body lift first described by Ted Lockwood in 1993 is a procedure that allows simultaneous skin resection and tightening of different regions including the abdomen, buttocks, hips, and thighs. In this article the authors present their 10-year experience with the body lift. Patient selection, technical details, pre- and postoperative care, complications, and expected results are all discussed.
