Comorbidity Remission Following Intragastric Dual Balloon Placement.
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 1 paper.
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
The intragastric dual balloon was FDA approved in 2015 for the treatment of obesity. The objective of this study was to report the weight loss, comorbidity remission, and biochemical improvements experienced by 28 patients following intragastric dual balloon placement at a single institution between September 2015 and June 2017. Demographic data were collected preoperatively. Anthropometric, clinical, and biochemical data were collected preoperatively and 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Two patients were lost to data follow-up. Participants experienced significant improvements in blood pressure and lipid profiles, in addition to substantial weight loss 6 months after balloon insertion. The results of this study underscore the promise of the intragastric dual balloon as an efficacious intervention for weight loss and comorbidity remission in patients with early-stage obesity.
