Use of fibrin glue in bariatric surgery: analysis of complications after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on 450 consecutive patients.
Article in Updates in surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) is one of the most performed surgical procedures in bariatric surgery. Staple line leak and bleeding are by far the two most feared complications after LSG. In this study, we retrospectively compared the efficacy of Fibrin Glue in preventing staple line leak and bleeding. From September 2019 to January 2020, 450 obese patients underwent elective LSG and were placed into groups with Fibrin Glue reinforcement (Group A) or without Fibrin Glue reinforcement (Group B). Primary endpoints were postoperative staple line leak and bleeding; while, secondary endpoints were reintervention rate, total operative time and mortality. Mean Body Mass Index (BMI) was 45.4 ± 7.9 kg/m
