Bariatric Surgery After Previous Antireflux Surgery Without Takedown of the Previous Fundoplication: a Prospective Study.
Trial report in Obesity surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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 increased prevalence of reflux disease in obese patients, combined with widespread availability of laparoscopic antireflux surgery, has increased the likelihood that more patients will seek bariatric surgery having previously undergone fundoplication.
objectivesThis study examined our series of laparoscopic bariatric surgery after previous antireflux surgery without takedown of the previous fundoplication. We discuss our results, our technique and the tips and tricks to avoid complication after this procedure.
settingPrivate practice.
methodsWe operated on patients suffering from obesity who had already undergone laparoscopic Nissen. The patients were eligible for bariatric surgery according to the French National Institute of Health's criteria for bariatric surgery. The pre-operative assessment involved gastroscopy with biopsies looking for Helicobacter pylori, oesophago-gastroduodenoscopy, investigation for sleep apnoea syndrome and a full laboratory assessment. The patients took part in their choice of surgery.
resultsThe patients' post-operative course was uncomplicated. No patients had symptoms of gastro-esophageal reflux late after surgery and good gastrointestinal comfort was achieved (no pain, no reflux). All of the patients were satisfied. Length of stay was 3 to 5 days. All patients exhibited significant weight loss.
conclusionBariatric surgery is possible after fundoplication without taking down the fundoplication. It appears to be a viable alternative in patients seeking weight loss surgery after fundoplication, which is currently assumed contraindicated.
