Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding After Failed Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundRoux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is associated with approximately 25 % weight loss failure, resulting in insufficient weight loss or weight regain. Strategies of revisional surgery focus on alteration of limb length, pouch or stoma size. Altering pouch size and outlet by adding laparoscopic adjustable gastric band (LAGB) might initiate further weight loss. The goal of this study is to review the safety and efficacy of LAGB after failed RYGB in a retrospective cohort of patients in our institute.
methodsPatients with secondary LAGB (n = 44) were studied between May 2012 and January 2015. Demographics, effects on weight loss and complications were analysed.
resultsMean age and body mass index (BMI) at time of LAGB was 45.8 ± 8.2 years and 37.2 ± 5.4 kg/m
conclusionIn this largest published cohort, secondary banding of failed RYGB provides only limited additional weight loss. Furthermore, this technique is associated with high morbidity and reoperation rates. A significant difference in effect was found between patients with weight loss failure and weight regain. Larger prospective series are necessary to evaluate if the modest benefits are worth the risks of secondary LAGB.
