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

backgroundSecondary bariatric procedures represent a challenge to both patients and surgeons. The objective of this study was to explore the patterns of recurrence and modalities of secondary bariatric procedures in a tertiary bariatric centre. MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective analysis of patients who underwent secondary bariatric procedures after laparoscopic adjustable gastric band (AGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) from April 2007 to March 2017.

resultsOverall, 3266 bariatric procedures were performed, and secondary bariatric procedures were required for 45 (1.4%) patients (28 AGB, 14 SG, 3 RYGB). Twenty-six (57.8%) patients underwent conversion to RYGB, eight (17.8%) patients underwent conversion to SG, seven (15.6%) patients were converted to duodenal switch (DS), two (4.4%) patients had revision of gastrojejunal anastomosis, one (2.2%) patient underwent revision of gastric pouch and one (2.2%) patient had replacement of AGB. Mean change in BMI and %TWL at 18 months were 8.5 ± 3.9 kg/m

conclusionWeight regain, inadequate weight loss and reflux were the main reasons for performing secondary bariatric procedures. The main revision procedures performed were RYGB and SG especially for failed AGB.
