A Comparison of the Effects of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and Sleeve Gastrectomy on Body Mass Composition as Measured by Air Displacement Plethysmography.
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 11 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 laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is now the most commonly performed bariatric surgery in the world. Multiple studies have demonstrated the equivalence between the LSG and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) with regard to weight loss and comorbidity resolution. Few studies have examined the differences in body mass composition change between the two procedures.
methodsSixty-three patients undergoing either LSG or RYGB underwent calculation of total body mass, ideal body mass, lean mass, and fat mass by air displacement plethysmography (BodPod
resultsThirty-three patients underwent LSG and 30 patients underwent RYGB. Mean percent excess weight loss in the LSG and RYGB group was 47.2% and 53.4% respectively (p = 0.165, 95% CI - 14.8-2.6). Mean percent change in fat mass for the LSG group and RYGB group was 9.2% and 10.51% respectively (p = 0.249, 95% CI - 0.86-3.2). Mean percent change in lean mass for the LSG group and RYGB group was 9.4% and 10.49% respectively (p = 0.383, 95% CI 2.85-1.13).
conclusionThe LSG and RYGB both impart dramatic meaningful loss in excess body weight. In addition, both the LSG and RYGB impart dramatic reductions in fat mass. However, both procedures induce loss of lean mass and there appears to be no difference between the two procedures in this regard despite their anatomic and physiologic differences.
