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 study aim is to determine if patients who have undergone endoscopic gastrojejunostomy revision (EGJR) maintain weight loss up to 5 years postoperatively.

methodsThis is a retrospective review of patients who underwent EGJR with a full-thickness endoscopic suturing device between April 2009 and June 2018. Percent of excess body weight loss (%EBWL) was calculated using the weight on day of EGJR consult as baseline. The paired t test and McNemar's test were used to compare weight and comorbidities between preoperative and postoperative time points.

resultsA total of 70 patients regained a mean of 42.8 ± 18.7% of the weight lost after gastric bypass. On day of EGJR consult, average was 116.1 ± 25.2 kg and BMI of 42.3 ± 8.5. Weight loss and %EBWL at follow-up was as follows: 10.7 ± 11.6 kg and 18.5 ± 18.2% at 6 months, 8.5 ± 11.5 kg and 14.9 ± 20.6% at 1 year, 6.9 ± 10.7 kg and 12.2 ± 19.8% at 2 years, 5.3 ± 9.1 kg and 8.7 ± 14.9% at 3 years, 3.1 ± 12.0 kg and 3.2 ± 21.6% at 4 years, and 3.9 ± 13.1 kg and 7.0 ± 23.8% at 5 years. The percentage of patients with obstructive sleep apnea, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes did not change over time. Patients who received a pursestring revision or had a greater percent reduction in stoma diameter had more significant %EBWL.

conclusionsWeight loss after EGJR is sustained up to 5 years after revision with little effect on medical comorbidities. Patients with a greater reduction in stoma diameter experienced superior weight loss.
