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

Obesity is associated with significant increases in morbidity and mortality secondary, in part, to the increased burden of cardiovascular and renal diseases. Currently, bariatric surgery represents an important component of intensive approaches to the treatment of chronic and complex obesity. The efficacy of bariatric surgery extends beyond its ability to support significant and sustainable reductions in bodyweight to improvements in metabolic and cardiovascular health which are proposed to occur, in part, via weight loss-independent physiological changes. This report summarises the concept of cardiovascular and renal diseases as important constituent aspects of obese morbidity that contribute to overall impairments in health and lifespan. It furthermore describes the key features of bariatric surgical interventions, the evidence base for their beneficial effect on cardiovascular and renal diseases, and lastly provides some perspectives on the mechanisms involved.
