The Relationship Between Histopathologic Findings and Body Mass Index in Sleeve Gastrectomy Materials.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveFor treatment of obesity, which is one of the important health problems of the present time, lifestyle modification, pharmacotherapy, behavioral treatment methods, and surgical procedures are commonly used. Sleeve gastrectomy is widely used among surgical procedures. We aimed to investigate the relationship between histopathologic findings and body mass indices (BMIs) of cases with sleeve gastrectomy in our study.
methodsThirty-seven patients were included in our study who underwent sleeve gastrectomy and whose operation materials were examined histopathologically in our hospital. Two pathologists re-evaluated all gastrectomy materials. The relationship between BMI and the presence of gastritis, atrophy, intestinal metaplasia (IM), Helicobacter pylori (HPL), and other histopathological findings was investigated.
resultsThe mean age of patients included in the study was 34.7 + 9.3 years. Of patients, 70.3% were female and 29.7% were male. There was a statistically significant difference between BMI and IM among the evaluated histopathologic parameters. Moreover, IM was significantly more present in patients with type 2 diabetes.
conclusionsThere is no previous study investigating the relationship between gastric histopathological findings and BMI in sleeve gastrectomy patients. We think that the statistically significant difference between BMI and IM that we found in our study may shed light on studies to be performed in the future.
