Laparoscopic Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass Versus Sleeve Gastrectomy on Pelvic Floor Disorders in Morbidly Obese Women: a Prospective Monocentric Pilot Study.
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 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundObesity is a well-known risk factor for female pelvic floor disorders (PFD). This study assessed the effects of bariatric surgery (BS) on pelvic organ prolapse symptoms (POPs) and urinary (UI) and anal incontinence (AI) in morbidly obese women undergoing either sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).
methodsMorbidly obese women undergoing BS from June 2016 to May 2017 were prospectively included. POPs, UI, and AI were compared at baseline and at 1 year after surgery using validated questionnaires.
resultsSeventy-two consecutive women were enrolled, 54 (75%) (30 (56%) RYBP and 24 (44%) SG) completed the study at 1 year and were considered for the final analysis. The mean age and mean preoperative BMI were 43 ± 11.8 years (range, 20-65) and 41 ± 5.4 kg/m
conclusionBS is associated with a significant improvement in UI but not in POPs. RYBP seems to increase AI, mainly flatus incontinence, compared to SG.
