Glucose Profiles in Pregnant Women After a Gastric Bypass : Findings from Continuous Glucose Monitoring.
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 25 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
backgroundThe diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) usually requires an oral glucose tolerance test, but this procedure seems inappropriate after gastric bypass surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB)) due to specific altered glycemic responses. We aimed here at describing continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) profile of pregnant women after RYGB.
methodsCGM was performed in 35 consecutive pregnant women after RYGB at 26.2 ± 5 weeks of gestation.
resultsAfter RYGB, pregnant women display high postprandial interstitial glucose (IG) peaks and low IG before and 2 h after meals. The postprandial IG peak is reached early, within 54 ± 9 min. The maximum IG values reach 205 mg/dl, and the percentage of time above 140 mg/dl (6.6 ± 7 %) is similar to what is described in GDM women.
conclusionsThis study is the first to describe CGM profile in pregnant women after RYGB. CGM features are similar to those of non-pregnant post-RYGB patients, characterized by wide and rapid changes in postprandial IG, and high exposure to hyperglycemia. The exposure to hyperglycemia is similar to what is reported in GDM although the time to postprandial peak is shorter. CGM could be an additional useful approach to screen for glucose intolerance during pregnancy after RYGB.
