In one paragraph

Review in Obesity surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06200961 (Use of Sedation-Free Transnasal Endoscopy to Improve Access and Lower Costs of Endoscopic Evaluations in a Bariatric Medical and Surgical Program), which is not on this map. Cited by 28 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

The obesity epidemic is swelling to epic proportions. Obese patients often suffer from a combination of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), also known as the "metabolic syndrome." The metabolic syndrome is an independent predictor of cardiac dysfunction and cardiovascular disease and a risk factor for perioperative morbidity and mortality. In this paper, we discuss the perioperative risk factors and the need for advanced care of obese patients needing general anesthesia for (bariatric) surgical procedures based on physiological principles.
