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.

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.

Abstract

Sleeve gastrectomy can exacerbate gastro-oesophageal reflux disease in some patients and cause de novo reflux in others. Some surgeons believe Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is the best bariatric surgical procedure for obese patients with hiatus hernia. Others believe that even patients with hiatus hernia can also be safely offered sleeve gastrectomy if combined with a simultaneous hiatus hernia repair. Still, others will offer these patients sleeve gastrectomy without any attempt to diagnose or repair hiatus hernia repair. The effectiveness of concurrent hiatal hernia repair in reducing the incidence of postoperative reflux after sleeve gastrectomy is unclear. This review systematically investigates the results and techniques of simultaneous sleeve gastrectomy and hiatus hernia repair for the treatment of obesity in accordance with PRISMA guidelines.
