Gastric band is safe and effective at three years in a national study subgroup of non-morbidly obese patients.
Trial report in Croatian medical journal, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01183975 (Prospective National Cohort Study on Swedish Adjustable Gastric Band), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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

Abstract
aimTo analyze the 3-year outcomes of lower body mass index (BMI) (<35 kg/m2) adjustable gastric band (AGB) recipients across multiple sites in the French health insurance system.
methodsFrom prospectively collected data on a cohort of 517 morbidly obese Swedish Adjustable Gastric Band® (SAGB) patients (Clinical Trials Web database, #NCT01183975), a retrospective analysis of a subgroup of 29 low-BMI patients was conducted. Patients had a severe obesity-related comorbidity, had undergone a prior bariatric procedure requiring reintervention, or had a maximum adult BMI≥40. Safety (mortality, adverse events) and effectiveness (BMI change, excess weight loss [EWL, %], total body weight loss [%TBWL], quality of life [QoL], and comorbidities) were evaluated.
resultsMultiple surgical teams/sites enrolled patients and performed SAGB procedures between September 2, 2007 and April 30, 2008. Of 29 low-BMI patients (mean age, 41.3±10.3 years), 89.7% were female, and obesity duration was 13.6±7.3 years. Mean BMI was 31.5±3.7; there were 37 comorbidities in 15/29 patients. At 3-year follow-up, BMI was 29.4±4.9 (mean change, -2.3±6.2; P=0.069); total cohort EWL, 7.3±74.8%; TBWL, 6.2±18.8%; BMI≥30 to <35 EWL, 38.8±48.0%; there were 7 comorbidities in 15/29 patients (P<0.031). There were 20 adverse events in 13 patients (44.8%); SAGBs were retained in 25/29 (86.2%) at 3 years.
conclusionsIn a retrospective analysis of a subgroup of BMI<35 kg/m2 patients, some following a prior bariatric procedure, SAGB was found to be safe and effective at 3-year follow-up.
