1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate the medium-term metabolic results of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in Chinese patients.

methodsWe performed a retrospective study of our LSG results between February 2011 and February 2015, and conducted a literature review of stenosis after LSG during a recent 10-year period.

resultsOf 142 patients in our study, the mean initial body mass index (BMI) was 38.34 kg/m

conclusionsLSG is a relatively safe surgical option for weight loss as a primary procedure in our study. Stenosis after LSG requires diagnosis and treatment promptly. Surgery can be a feasible treatment option, but care must be taken to avoid complications.
