Surgery-related gastrointestinal symptoms in a prospective study of bariatric surgery patients: 3-year follow-up.
Trial report in Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07643376 (Evaluation of Postoperative Metabolic Parameters, Intestinal Permeability and Gastrointestinal Symptoms in Body Weight Management After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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
backgroundHaving accurate information on bariatric surgery-related gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms is critical for patient care.
objectiveTo report on surgery-related GI symptoms over the first 3 years following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and laparoscopic adjustable gastric band.
settingThree academic medical centers in the United States.
methodsAs a substudy of the Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery Consortium, 183 participants (pre-surgery median body mass index = 45.1 kg/m
resultsPrevalence of dysphagia at least once weekly decreased post-laparoscopic adjustable gastric band surgery from 43.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 32.2-55.6) in year 1 to 27.5% (95% CI, 15.2-39.9) in year 3 (P = .02). Dysphagia and dumping at least once weekly also appeared to decrease in years 1-3 post-Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (i.e., from 16.7% [95% CI, 9.4-24.1] to 10.9% [95% CI, 4.0-17.8] and from 9.9% [95% CI, 4.3-15.5] to 6.3% [95% CI, 1.7-10.9], respectively), but power was limited to evaluate trends. Vomiting at least once weekly was rare (<6%) in years 1-3 following both procedures. Controlling for potential confounders and surgical procedure, loss of control eating at least once weekly was associated with higher risk of at least once weekly dysphagia (relative risk = 2.01, 95% CI, 1.36-2.99, P = .001).
conclusionsThe prevalence of bariatric surgery-related GI symptoms appears to decrease across follow-up. Symptoms were associated with loss of control eating, suggesting a target for clinical intervention.
