Metabolic Surgery as a Treatment Option for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Surgical View.
Review in Current diabetes reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing in prevalence and associated with numerous metabolic complications leading to increased mortality and costs. Metabolic surgery, or surgery to treat T2DM and obesity, is effective at achieving remission from T2DM. This review discusses the most commonly used surgical options including the adjustable gastric band, the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, the sleeve gastrectomy, and the biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch and their ability to treat and prevent T2DM. RECENT
findingsThere is an increasing body of literature that justifies the inclusion of metabolic surgery into the treatment algorithm for patients with obesity and T2DM. Metabolic procedures should be performed at centers that offer comprehensive treatment of metabolic disorders and have expertise in gastrointestinal surgery. The incremental improvement in the quality and safety of metabolic surgery has significantly reduced the risk of serious post-operative complications. Metabolic surgery is a safe and effective treatment option for obese patients with T2DM.
