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.

Abstract

backgroundLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is now considered an effective bariatric procedure (American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery statement). We attempted to assess the size of the gastric fundus remaining after LSG and gastric voiding rate (fast/slow) by radiological upper gastrointestinal series (UGS) with a water-soluble contrast medium (CM). The findings were compared with weight loss data.

methodsSeventy-four obese patients underwent LSG. Radiological UGS were used to measure the remaining fundus size in 28 of 74 patients 24-72 h after the procedure, with the aid of Matlab software and a library image processing toolbox (MathWorks®). Sleeve voiding was measured in 57 of 74 patients, based on the patients' radiological reports.

resultsThe mean volume of the remaining fundus was 17.56 ml (range 1.00-77.03 ml). The mean percent excess BMI loss (%EBL) was 39.5%, 53.7%, and 60.8%, respectively, 3, 6, and 12 months after LSG. Sleeve voiding was fast in 49 of 57 patients (85.96%) and slow in eight (14.03%).

conclusionsNo correlation was found between the estimated volume of the remaining gastric fundus and weight loss (%EBL) after LSG. Patients showing a rapid gastroduodenal transit of the CM achieved a better weight loss than patients with a slow voiding rate.
