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

introductionLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has gained ground in Eastern Europe in the decade but fewer reports of large series with medium-term follow-up exist. We describe a single-surgeon experience in LSG (the first 101 consecutive cases) in a Balkan emerging bariatric center.

methodsA prospectively maintained database of the initial 101 consecutive patients submitted to LSG in our clinic between October 2010 and February 2016 was reviewed.

resultsThe percentages of mean excess weight loss (%EWL) in the 101 patients (mean age of 42 ± 10.6 years, 77 % female, median preoperative body mass index (BMI) of 44.5 kg/m

conclusionsLSG is a safe procedure, with low postoperative morbidity rates and excellent short-term %EWL results up to 3 years after surgery, including resolution or improvement of the main obesity-related comorbidities. The results were superior in the category of younger and lower initial BMI obese patients.
