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

objectivesZollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES) is characterized by hypergastrinemia and gastric acid hypersecretion resulting in peptic ulcer disease, diarrhea, and weight loss. Acid secretion can be controlled with medication, and biochemical cure is possible with surgery. Data on how these interventions affect patients' weight are lacking. We aimed to determine how medical and surgical acid control affects weight over time.

methodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study on 60 ZES patients. Acid control was achieved with appropriate-dose proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. Surgery was performed for curative intent when appropriate. Weight change was assessed versus pre-acid control or immediate preoperative weights and expressed as absolute and percent change from baseline at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months.

resultsA total of 30 PPI-controlled patients and 20 surgery-controlled patients were analyzed. Weight gain was noted at all time points while on appropriate-dose PPI therapy (P < 0.005). Of patients who had surgery with curative intent, weight gain was noted at 12 months (7.9%, P = 0.013) and 18 months (7.1%, P = 0.007). There was a trend toward weight gain seen at all time points in the patients who were surgically cured.

conclusionsThese data represent a novel description of weight gain after acid suppression in ZES.
