Article 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 NCT04237857 (Long Term Incidence and Effect of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Chinese Population), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

backgroundLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has been validated as a safe and effective treatment for morbid obesity. However, data of the long-term outcome remains lacking.

methodsA total of 1759 LSG was performed as primary bariatric procedure from 2005 to 2017 with mean age of 35.2 ± 10.3 years old (14-71), female 69.7%, mean body mass index (BMI) 37.9 ± 7.7 kg/m

resultsThe mean operating time, intraoperative blood, and hospital stay of LSG were 121.5 ± 36.5 min, 40.8 ± 69.7 ml, and 2.8 ± 2.7 days, respectively. The 30-day postoperative major complication occurred in 25 (1.4%) patients. The major complication rate was 15% at first year and 0% at the last year. The follow-up rate at 1, 5 and 10 years were 89.3%, 52.1 and 64.4%. At postoperative 1, 5, and 10 years, the mean percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) and excess weight loss (EWL%) of LSG patients were 33.4, 28.3, and 26.6% and 92.2, 80.1, and 70.5%, respectively. The mean BMI became 27, 26.2, and 27.1 kg/m

conclusionsOur results showed that primary LSG is a durable primary bariatric procedure with sustained weight loss and a high resolution of comorbidities at 10 years, but about half the patients had de novo GERD. The need for conversion to RYGB was 16.9% at 10 years.
