Dietary Intakes and Biochemical Parameters of Morbidly Obese Patients Prior to Bariatric Surgery.
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 9 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
backgroundPatients with morbid obesity appear to have adequate nutritional intake, but some studies suggest deficiencies in the micronutrient intake in these patients. Present study aimed to determine dietary intakes and their associated biochemical parameters in an Iranian population of patients with morbid obesity prior to bariatric surgery.
methodsOne hundred seventy patients with morbid obesity who have referred to surgery clinic of Firoozgar Hospital were enrolled in the study. Ideal Body Weight (IBW) and Adjusted Ideal Body Weight (AIBW) were calculated. The dietary data were collected using a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Anthropometrics and biochemical parameters were assessed. All the statistical analyses were done using the SPSS with an alpha of 0.05.
resultsMean age of participants was 37.4 ± 10.17 years. The mean and standard deviation (SD) of the BMI and EBW values was 45.75 ± 6.49 kg/m and 47.6 ± 13.74 kg, respectively. All the micro- and macro-nutrient intakes are significantly different from the recommended values, except for vitamin A in the men and calcium in the 51-70-year-old women. 47.1% and 17.1% of the participants were classified as patients with diabetes and pre-diabetes, respectively. Majority of participants had lower serum iron levels than the reference values. Almost all the participants (97%) had normal albumin levels.
conclusionsDespite their excess intakes of energy, patients with obesity usually suffer from micronutrient deficiencies, such as vitamin D, iron, and vitamin B12, which can be accompanied by complicated biochemical disorders like impaired glucose metabolism and dyslipidemia. Therefore, bariatric surgery candidates require close nutritional monitoring before and after their surgical operations.
