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

backgroundLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is taking the lead as the most popular bariatric procedure in most regions of the world. Unlike other liquids, water is particularly affected by LSG. Because of its importance for safe hospital discharge, weight loss, and patients' lifestyle, we evaluated water tolerance after LSG.

methodsThe study included 106 consecutive patients who underwent LSG. All patients had upper gastrointestinal series (UGI) 48 h (early) and 3 months postoperatively (late), during which flow patterns (esophageal and gastric transit time) for water and juice were measured and correlated with subjective tolerance for water and juice at the same time of the contrast studies. Intraoperative measurements of the sleeve were also correlated with subjective tolerance.

resultsOne-hundred and two (94 females, 92%) completed the 3-month follow-up. The mean age was 30.75 years; mean pre-operative BMI 46.76 kg/m

conclusionLSG reduces water tolerance significantly more than other liquids (juice) in the early postoperative period. Good water tolerance is a critical parameter for early hospital discharge after LSG. Larger studies with longer follow-up are warranted to determine the long-term fate of fluid tolerance following LSG and its effect on weight loss and quality of life.
