Status of Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in China: A National Survey.
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 5 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
backgroundLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a favorable bariatric procedure. This study evaluated the status of LSG in China.
methodsDuring the 4
resultsFor preoperative preparations, surgeons preferred blood glucose control with insulin (61.0%), bowel cleaning (33.3%), and fasting and water deprivation (75.2%). For surgical techniques, surgeons preferred 36/38F bougie (86.7%), greater curvature mobilization with ultrasonic energy device (89.5%), direct transection of short gastric vessels (80%), antrum resection within 2-6 cm to the pylorus (84.8%) with 4.8 mm height stapler (72.4%), and 3.5 mm for corpus (94.3%). Whole stapler-line reinforcement, gastric sleeve fixation, leaking test, and abdominal drainage were preferred by 48.6, 62.9, 39, and 47.6% surgeons. For postoperative managements, surgeons preferred nasogastric tube insertion (33.3%), early liquid diet (69.6%), 4 weeks of liquid diet (55.2%), 2000 ml daily water intake before discharge (79%), 4 weeks of PPI (69.5%), and multi-vitamin supplementation 1 week after operation (77.1%). For postoperative complications, preferences were tachycardia as the onset of leak (81.0%) and oral contrast radiography for leak diagnosis (72.4%). Leak managements include US-guided percutaneous drainage (68.6%), nasogastric tube (87.6%), and parenteral nutrition (61%). For prolonged leak, enteral nutrition (87.6%) and Roux-en-Y bypass (84.8%) as the salvage procedure were preferred. 95.2% preferred endoscopic dilation for stricture.
conclusionsLSG is gaining its wide application in China, but standardization of LSG is urgently needed.
