Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy for Morbid Obesity in 3003 Patients: Results at a High-Volume Bariatric Center.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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
backgroundLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is gaining wide acceptance as a single surgical treatment for obesity. The reported morbidity and mortality rates are low. We herein report the results of LSG performed in a high-volume center by an experienced team.
methodsRetrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database of all bariatric surgery (BS) was performed between May 2006 and December 2014. Data inspected included operative time, length of hospital stay (LOS), comorbidity resolution, re-operation, percent excess weight loss (%EWL), and 30-day morbidity and mortality.
resultsIn the study period, 3003 patients underwent BS (1901 (63 %) female). Mean age and body mass index (BMI) were 43 years (range 14-73) and 42.8 kg/m(2) (range 35-73), respectively. %EWL at 1 year was 72 % (n = 937; 57 % follow-up rate). There was 1 perioperative mortality due to bleeding (0.03 %). Comorbidity improvement and resolution were 98 % for obstructive sleep apnea, 79 % for diabetes mellitus, 87 % for dyslipidemia, and 85 % for hypertension. Mean operative time and LOS were 50 min (range 32-94) and 2.2 days (range 1-38), respectively. Of the patients, 132 had complications (4.4 %), 25 leaks (0.83 %), 63 bleeding (2.1 %), 1 intra-abdominal abscesses (0.03 %), 3 sleeve strictures (0.1 %), 2 mesenteric vein thromboses (0.06 %), 10 trocar site hernias (0.3 %), and 78 symptomatic cholelithiasis (2.6 %). Re-operation was needed in 13 patients (0.43 %).
conclusionIn a high-volume center with an experienced team, LSG can be performed with low morbidity and mortality.
