Laparoscopic gastric bypass with subtotal gastrectomy for a super-obese patient with Biermer anemia.
Article in Obesity surgery, 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
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) is a common procedure for morbid obesity. After RYGBP, the bypassed stomach is unavailable for follow-up. Biermer anemia is an autoimmune atrophic gastritis inducing vitamin B12 deficiency and it is a risk factor for gastric carcinoma. A 41-year-old woman with a long history of morbid obesity presented with a BMI of 56 kg/m2. She had anemia (Hb 9.9 g/dL), and atrophic gastritis was found endoscopically. We performed a laparoscopic RYGBP with subtotal gastrectomy, to avoid the risk of gastric carcinoma in the bypassed stomach. The patient was discharged 9 days after the operation without complication. At 18 months follow-up, her BMI was 39 kg/m2 (50% excess weight loss). Laparoscopic RYGBP with subtotal gastrectomy is a safe treatment for morbid obesity, which should be considered for patients with a risk factor for gastric carcinoma.
