Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding, the past, the present and the future.
Review in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
The laparoscopic implantation of an adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) was first described in 1993. Thereafter, the LAGB underwent to a lot of modifications, revision and refinements to become as it is currently defined. This procedure quickly became one of the most common bariatric surgical operations in the world in the first decade of the 2000s but, over the last few years, it has turned into the fourth more common procedure. A series of more or less clear reasons, led to this decrease of LAGB. The knowledge of the history of the LAGB, of its evolution over the years and its limitations can be the key-point to recognize the reasons that are leading to its decline. The adjustability and the absolute reversibility characteristic of LAGB, make this surgical procedure a "bridge treatment" to allow the specific goal of eradicating obesity.
