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

backgroundMetabolic surgery causes the remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension, and hyperlipidemia to varying degrees, depending on the patient characteristics and the surgical procedure. The aim of this study was to find predictors for the remission of T2DM and hypertension after biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPDDS).

methodsEighty patients with T2DM were followed up for 2 years or more after BPDDS, and changes in body weight and metabolic status were noted. Remission was defined as fasting glucose <7 mmol/l with HbA1C <6.5 %, blood pressure <140/90 mmHg, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) <2.6 mmol without the use of medication.

resultsPreoperatively, the mean age was 44 years, body mass index (BMI) was 48 kg/m(2), and duration of diabetes was 5 years. Of the 80 patients, 38 patients were using insulin, 48 patients were using antihypertensives, and 38 patients were using a lipid-lowering drug. Five percent of the patients had recommended levels for HbA1C, blood pressure, and LDL prior to the operation. The remission rate at 2 years was 94 % for T2DM, 54 % for hypertension, and 86 % for LDL hyperlipidemia. Preoperative predictors for nonremission of T2DM were a higher BMI, insulin usage, and low insulin C-peptide, and for hypertension, older age and more severe hypertension. Postoperative weight loss was important for both.

conclusionsSurgical intervention with BPDDS is an effective treatment of T2DM, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. The duration of T2DM and age of the patient are the most important preoperative predictors for the remission of T2DM and hypertension, respectively.
