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

purposeConditions associated with surgical technique and postoperative lifestyle changes, as well as the characteristics of patients, may affect weight loss following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. In this study, the effects of age, gender, BMI, and excess weight at the time of surgery on weight loss during follow-up were examined. MATERIALS AND

methodsDemographic data (age, gender), preoperative BMI, and weight values of the patients were recorded. TWL% and EWL% values of patients were recorded during follow-up at 1st, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th, and 18th months. Patients were grouped according to age (AGE1 < 30, AGE2 30-50, AGE3 ≥ 50 years), BMI at the time of surgery (BMI1 ≤ 50, BMI2 > 50 kg/m

resultsA total of 456 patients (371 females, 85 males) were operated. Mean EWL% was lower in AGE3 group (p < 0.001). Patients in AGE1 group had the highest mean EWL%, while those in BMI2 and EW2 groups had lower mean EWL% values throughout the follow-up period (p < 0.001). Regression analysis showed that age and BMI were associated with EWL% at all follow-up visits (p < 0.05).

conclusionPatients with less than 60 kg of excess weight, those with BMI ≤ 50 kg/m
