Bariatric surgery in individuals with human immunodeficiency virus and type 2 diabetes: a case series.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe efficacy and safety of bariatric surgery have not been fully elucidated in patients affected with human immunodeficiency virus. Although adjustable gastric banding and sleeve gastrectomy are starting to be used in patients with human immunodeficiency virus, there are limited descriptions of the outcomes of type 2 diabetes mellitus in individuals who are human immunodeficiency virus positive and undergoing these procedures. CASE PRESENTATION: We have evaluated retrospectively three patients who underwent adjustable gastric banding or sleeve gastrectomy, the effect in weight reduction and glycemic control as well as its impact on human immunodeficiency virus management. Case 1 (adjustable gastric banding), a 58-year-old Caucasian male, achieved 19% total weight loss, Case 2, a 33-year-old Caucasian male (sleeve gastrectomy) lost 25%, and Case 3, a 48-year-old Caucasian female (sleeve gastrectomy), lost 14% postoperation. In terms of type 2 diabetes mellitus, Case 2 achieved complete remission according to American Diabetes Association criteria, while Case 1 would also have achieved remission were it not for the continuation of metformin postoperatively. Insulin requirements and pill burden were markedly reduced in Case 3 after sleeve gastrectomy, although lack of remission was predictable given the longevity of type 2 diabetes mellitus and preoperative insulin dosage. In all three cases, human immunodeficiency virus status did not appear to be affected by the bariatric surgery which was supported by the postoperative stable CD4 count and undetectable viral load.
conclusionsBariatric surgery is a safe and effective treatment modality in patients who are human immunodeficiency virus positive with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
