An overview of complications affecting the Central Nervous System following bariatric surgery.
Review in Neurosciences (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Bariatric surgery has been considered as an effective treatment for morbid obesity. Apart from procedures related complications, a broad spectrum of neurological disorders affecting any part of neuraxis has been reported following BS. Central nervous system complications, although less common than peripheral nervous system complications, carry significant morbidity and potential mortality. Encephalopathy, behavioral and psychiatric disorders, myelopathy and optic neuropathy are the most frequently reported CNS complications. Early detection and prompt management may improve or completely reverse these neurological complications. It is essential that the treating physicians must be aware of their clinical manifestations and management, so early diagnosis and treatment can prevent patients from suffering significant neurological deficits and even death. This review discusses the clinical manifestations of these complications in detail which will help concerned physician in earlier recognition and hence prevent the delay in specific treatment.
