Article in Wideochirurgia i inne techniki maloinwazyjne = Videosurgery and other miniinvasive techniques, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05420506 (Treatment of Obesity Without Surgical Intervention by Reversible Reduction of the Small Intestinal Absorption Area), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

introductionOverweight and obesity are ranked in the fifth place among the risk factors responsible for the greatest number of deaths in the world.

aimTo assess the effects of treatment of patients with morbid obesity using endoscopic intragastric balloon (IGB) implantation. MATERIAL AND

methodsTwo hundred and seventy-two patients with obesity were treated using endoscopic intragastric balloon implantation. Upon analysis of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the study covered a group of 63 patients with morbid obesity. The patients were implanted with the LexBal balloon. Reduction of excess body mass, changes to BMI values and ailments and complications divided into mild and severe were assessed.

resultsBefore intragastric balloon treatment, the average body mass index (BMI) value was 58.3 ±10.5 kg/m

conclusionsEndoscopic intragastric balloon implantation is an effective and safe method of excess body mass reduction in patients with morbid obesity before a planned bariatric surgical procedure. Pre-operative excess body mass and BMI value and post-operative excess weight loss in patients with morbid obesity have no impact on frequency of occurrence of ailments and complications in IGB treatment.
