Milestone Weight Loss Goals (Weight Normalization and Remission of Obesity) after Gastric Bypass Surgery: Long-Term Results from the University of Michigan.
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 10 papers.
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
backgroundRates of weight normalization and obesity remission after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (GB) are unknown. This study evaluated weight loss, rates of achieving body mass index (BMI) <25 or 30 kg/m
methodsWe retrospectively studied weight and BMI at baseline, 2 and 6 months, and annually at 1-7 years in 219 patients undergoing GB at the University of Michigan from January 2008 to November 2010.
resultsFollow-up was excellent for a population traditionally associated with high attrition rates with data availability of 157/219, 145/219, 144/219, 134/219, 123/219, 82/161, and 29/64 patients at 1-7 years, respectively. Mean baseline BMI was 47.0 kg/m
conclusionsRates of weight normalization are low after GB; however, a large number of patients achieved BMI <30 kg/m
