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

objectiveThe study was designed to examine changes of body fat distribution after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in obese male patients and to confirm whether these changes are correlated with increased testosterone.

methodsA total of 30 obese male patients with body mass index (BMI) 30-45 kg/m

resultsSix months after surgery, the BMI of participants (age 33.0 ± 9.5) decreased from 40.2 ± 5.2 to 30.8 ± 4.4 kg/m

conclusionIn obese male patients with BMI 30-45 kg/m
