Revision of Biliopancreatic Diversion for Side Effects or Insufficient Weight Loss: Codification of a New Procedure.
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 2 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
purposeAddressing the problem of proctologic sequelae after Scopinaro's classical BPD, we elongated the common limb from 50 to 200 cm at the expense of the alimentary limb and simultaneously, with the aim of avoiding weight regain, reduced the gastric pouch from 500 to 40 ml. After increased experience with the new procedure, we observed a favourable tendency towards further weight loss. Thus, we subsequently extended the indication to the procedure to patients with unsatisfactory weight loss after Scopinaro's classical BPD (SBPD).
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed our clinical experience with the new procedure.
resultsFrom March 2008 to December 2014, 38 patients were submitted to the revisional procedure. The indication to surgical revision was proctologic in 26 patients and unsatisfactory weight loss in 12. After the revisional procedure, a significant reduction in bowel movements per day was observed, together with a significant reduction in body weight (from preoperative 87.1 ± 21 to 69.2 ± 13.5 kg at post-operative year 1 and 68.1 ± 11.9 kg at year 5; p < 0.001) and a parallel reduction in BMI (from preoperative 33.03 ± 7.6 to 26.8 ± 4.1 at post-operative year 1 and 26.9 ± 2.8 at year 5; p < 0.001). Mean excess BMI percent loss was 49.5 ± 94.6% at post-operative month 3, 76.51 ± 74.9% at year 1 and 76.2 ± 31.3% at year 5. Nutritional and metabolic parameters remained stable. Similar results were observed, analysing separately both groups of patients.
conclusionsOur preliminary data suggest that the proposed procedure could represent a safe and effective revisional tool to treat invalidating proctologic sequelae after SBPD, or when weight loss may be deemed unsatisfactory.
