Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, Obesity, and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: Complex Relationship-a Narrative Review.
Review in Obesity surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers, 4 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
Common, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is promoted by increased abdomino-thoracic pressure gradient and affects a large proportion of patients with obesity. Weight loss is one of the mainstays of conservative treatment. While fundoplication is recognized as the best surgical option in the general population, its results in severely obese individuals are controversial. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is a widely used bariatric procedure and has been shown to also result in major improvement of GERD through various mechanisms, including weight loss. RYGB is considered by many as the procedure of choice to treat patients with both severe obesity and GERD. Not all patients are free from GERD symptoms after RYGB, though, a therapeutic challenge. This narrative review discusses the complex interactions between obesity, GERD, and RYGB.
