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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAlthough sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has become an important treatment option in severe obesity, cardiorespiratory and muscle function after SG has not adequately been investigated.

methodsThis is an observational study in 26 obese patients (BMI 45.2 ± 5.8 kg/m

resultsThe substantial weight loss (-33.4 ± 11.0 kg) after SG led to increased peak work capacity (metabolic equivalents, METs) and relative peak oxygen uptake (VO

conclusionsThe ventilatory and cardiac function do not appear negatively affected by SG; thus, we hypothesize that the decrease in aerobic capacity could be due to alterations in peripheral muscles. This might in part be due to a loss of muscle mass, although our patients' muscle strength did not decrease. Pilot results from VO
