Comparison of Banded Versus Non-banded Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: a Series of 1150 Patients at a Single Institution.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundVariations have been proposed in order to improve weight loss and decrease complication profiles in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) patients. We previously reported a preliminary result of pericardial patch ring RYGB. We aim to report a detailed result of banded RYGB by comparing these patients to non-banded RYGB patients with larger case number and longer follow-up. MATERIAL AND
methodsA retrospective chart review was performed in 543 banded RYGB and 607 non-banded RYGB patients who underwent laparoscopic RYGB between January 2009 and December 2014.
resultsThirty-day readmission rate was 3.1% (n = 16) in the banded group and 3.8% (n = 23) in the non-banded group. Thirty-day reoperation rate was 1.5% (n = 8) in the banded group and 1.6% (n = 10) in the non-banded group. Two mortalities occurred after a mesenteric venous thrombosis and an intracranial hemorrhage in the non-banded group. The differences in 30-day readmission and reoperation rates were not statistically significant between the two groups. Mean percentage of excess BMI loss (%EBMIL) dating from the time of RYGB was 53.1, 72.5, 76.5, 78.8, and 73.3% in the banded group, and 51.5, 73.5, 78.8, 79.0, and 74.8% in the non-banded group at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months, respectively, adjusted for preoperative BMI. The differences in %EBMIL were not significant at any follow-up points between the two groups.
conclusionsBanded laparoscopic RYGB with a pericardial patch may not demonstrate a significant additional weight loss or prevent future weight regain. We were not able to demonstrate a clear advantage of banded RYGB over non-banded RYGB.
