Primary and Secondary Nonresponse Following Bariatric Surgery: a Survey Study in Current Bariatric Practice in the Netherlands and Belgium.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
purposePrimary nonresponse (1NR) - inability to achieve adequate weight loss after surgery - and secondary nonresponse (2NR) - excessive weight regain after initial adequate weight loss after surgery - can occur in up to 25-35% of patients after bariatric surgery. The aim of this study was to explore the variations in both definition as well as management of 1NR and 2NR amongst bariatric surgeons. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn online survey was distributed to all members of the national bariatric societies in the Netherlands and Belgium regarding questions about definition, work-up and treatment of 1NR and 2NR after bariatric surgery.
resultsA total of 45 responses from bariatric surgeons were obtained, representing 32 medical centers that perform bariatric procedures. When assessing 1NR, excess weight loss(EWL) was reported to be used by most respondents(30/45), total body weight loss(TBWL) by 18/45 and body mass index(BMI) by 25/45. A great variation in cut off values was observed. When assessing 2NR, percentage weight gain from the lowest (nadir) weight was preferred most by 22/45 respondents with cut off values varying from 5 to 20%. Most respondents deemed 18 months after initial surgery the most appropriate timeframe to determine 1NR or 2NR.
conclusionsThe current practice regarding primary and secondary nonresponse after bariatric surgery has a wide variety in definitions, work-up and treatment options. Consensus on the definition of 1NR and 2NR is needed to optimize the treatment of bariatric patients.
