Comparison of 2-Year Results of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and Transit Bipartition with Sleeve Gastrectomy for Superobesity.
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 18 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
purposeAlthough Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is a powerful procedure, achieving and maintaining significant weight loss remains challenging in superobese populations. Transit bipartition with sleeve gastrectomy is derived from biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch and might improve weight loss control. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwo series of 71 primary laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and transit bipartition (TB) with a body mass index ≥ 50 kg/m
resultsThe 2 groups were comparable for age and BMI of 51.9 ± 1.8 for RYGB and 51.6 ± 5 for TB. TB was longer to perform (92 vs 74 min, p ≤ 0.001) with a 30-day complication rate of 4.2% and 5.6%, but there was 1 death after RYGB. Weight loss was greater after TB compared with RYGB with %EBMIL of 85.3 ± 15.8% vs 73.9 ± 17.2% (p = 0.0002). One TB patient suffered from protein malnutrition but none after RYGB. After TB, 7% of the patients experienced > 3 stools a day and 1 patient required revision, while 3 patients had diarrhea after RYGB. Late reoperations were required for 7 and 1 patients after RYGB and TB. Comorbidity improvement was similar.
conclusionIn a superobese population, TB appeared relatively safer compared with RYGB. It achieved a better weight loss at 2 years with a trend for more digestive side effects.
