The Nissen-Sleeve (N-Sleeve): Results of a Cohort Study.
Observational study in Obesity surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 Montpellier bariatric team has recently proposed some technical alternatives to decrease the rate of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after bariatric surgery and also to offer patients an alternative in case of contraindication to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP): the Nissen-Sleeve (N-Sleeve).
objectivesWe present here the results from a cohort of patients that underwent an operation with this newly designed anti-reflux bariatric procedure N-Sleeve: Nissen valve added to a standard SG.
methodsData from a prospective, observational, and monocentric cohort. All consecutive patients presenting to the bariatric surgery department for a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy between 2016 and 2018 with GERD were included in the study. The fundus was stapled with a margin from the valve, and the valve was created with tissue at a distance from the greater curvature so as to avoid a double layer stapling of the stomach.
resultsA total of 70 patients were included in the study. Ninety percent of the cohort presented with a hiatal hernia at the time of surgery. No mortality was observed during the follow-up period. Concerning GERD, 76% of all patients had preoperative esophageal syndromes, whereas 21% were asymptomatic with associated esophagitis. Grade A-C esophagitis was present in 99% of the cohort, but no Barrett's esophagus was present. Fifty-six (80%) patients used PPIs regularly. At 1 year of follow-up, one patient was still symptomatic.
conclusionsComparative trials remain necessary between N-Sleeve and standard bariatric procedures to refine the specific indications of each of them and determine the eventual role of the N-Sleeve.
