Self-Reported Eating Disorder Symptoms Before and After Gastric Bypass and Duodenal Switch for Super Obesity--a 5-Year Follow-Up Study.
Trial report in Obesity surgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThis study assessed eating disorder pathology in persons with obesity before and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (DS), in a 5-year follow-up study.
methodsSixty participants with BMI 50-60 kg/m(2) were randomly assigned to RYGB (n = 31) or DS (n = 29). The participants completed the Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) before and 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years after surgery.
resultsBefore surgery, the prevalence of objective bulimic episodes was 29 % in the RYGB group and 32 % in the DS group. The prevalence improved during the first 12 months after surgery in both groups. After 5 years, the prevalence of objective bulimic episodes was 22 % in the RYGB group and 7 % in the DS group. The difference between groups throughout follow-up was non-significant (logistic regression model). A linear mixed model showed that global EDE-Q score was not a significant predictor for weight loss after surgery, but participants reporting objective bulimic episodes before surgery had significantly lower BMI than those with no episodes after 2 years (p = 0.042) and 5 years (p = 0.013). Global EDE-Q score was significantly lower in the DS group after 5 years (p = 0.009) (linear mixed model).
conclusionsObjective bulimic episodes but not global EDE-Q score before surgery predicted greater weight loss after RYGB and DS. The DS group had a significantly lower global EDE-Q score than the RYGB group 5 years after surgery.
