Detecting Bile Reflux-the Enigma of Bariatric Surgery.
Review in Obesity surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05131802 (Bile Reflux Gastropathy), which is not on this map. Cited by 17 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
Duodeno-gastro-esophageal reflux, or bile reflux, is a condition for which there is no diagnostic gold standard, and it remains controversial in terms of carcinoma risk. This is pertinent in the context of an increasingly overweight population who are undergoing weight-loss operations that theoretically further increase the risk of bile reflux. This article reviews investigations for bile reflux based on efficacy, patient tolerability, cost, and infrastructure requirements. At this time, whilst no gold standard exists, hepatobiliary scintigraphy is the least invasive investigation with good-patient tolerability, sensitivity, and reproducibility to be considered first-line for diagnosis of bile reflux. This review will guide clinicians investigating bile reflux.
