Vertical Gastric Bypass with Fundectomy: Feasibility and 2-Year Follow-Up in a Series of Morbidly Obese Patients.
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 6 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
backgroundRoux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the gold standard procedure for morbid obesity and its results are well known and largely discussed. The major limitation of the procedure is the difficult exploration of the excluded gastric pouch and duodenum. The vertical gastric bypass with fundectomy was recently introduced in attempt to overcome these limitations. To date, its effectiveness is debated and outcomes still unclear. The purposes of this study were to describe the vertical gastric bypass with fundectomy and to analyse its outcomes in term of weight loss, complications, and comorbid resolutions. MATERIAL AND
methodsSince January 2012 to July 2014, 30 consecutive patients were enrolled and prospectively followed for a 24-month period. All patients underwent the vertical gastric bypass with fundectomy. Follow-up visits were scheduled at 7 days, 1, 6, 12, and 24 months, or whenever necessary.
resultsOverall, 24 women and six men were enrolled in the study. Mean preoperative BMI was 38.2 ± 8.5 kg/m
conclusionsVertical gastric bypass with fundectomy is feasible and effective with similar results in terms of weight loss, complications, and comorbid improving compared to the classic RYGB. Complete evaluation of the gastric anatomy and easy access to the main duodenal papilla are unquestionable advantages.
