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 showing a constant increase worldwide, making it the major public health problem. Bariatric surgery seems to be the best treatment for these to achieve a good excess weight loss. Gastric by-pass (GBP) is one the most important bariatric procedure, but there are a lot of complications as bowel obstruction for internal hernia, fistula and intussusception. CASE REPORT: We present a peculiar case report of a 53-years old woman that underwent to GBP. On the fourth postoperative day, she presented a bowel obstruction and underwent a second surgical intervention for incisional hernia. Another surgical revision was necessary because of dilatation of excluded stomach. Subsequent external drain of excluded stomach solved the paralytic ileum post bowel obstruction.
conclusionPostoperative occlusion is more complex in bariatric patients, either for variety of etiology, either for choosing best approach to the new anatomy. In addition, post-surgery course may be different, because GBP may determine many modifications on gastrointestinal motility and clinical symptoms. An accurate knowledge of bariatric surgery is mandatory in these situations, obtaining the best management.
