Effectiveness of Bariatric Surgery in Patients with the Metabolically Healthy Obese Phenotype.
Observational study in Obesity surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundTo evaluate the effectiveness and safety of bariatric surgery in metabolically healthy obese (MHO) patients.
methodsIn this retrospective, observational study, we reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent bariatric surgery at a tertiary care hospital between January 2007 and March 2015. Patients who underwent revisional surgery and patients with type 1 diabetes were excluded from the analysis. MHO patients were defined as those without a previous diagnosis of diabetes or atherogenic dyslipidemia and absence of hypoglycemic treatment or treatment with fibrates.
resultsA total of 188 patients were included (mean age 48.97 ± 10.32 years, 68.6% of women). Sleeve gastrectomy was performed in 121 patients (64%) and a gastric bypass in 67 patients (36%). Prior to surgery, 36 patients (19%) were MHO. In the second- and third-year post-surgery, MHO patients presented a higher percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) (35.16% vs. 30.34%; p = 0.02 and 33.97% vs. 27.78%; p = 0.013 respectively). Multiple regression analysis showed that MHO was associated with a higher weight loss irrespective of age, sex, baseline BMI, and type of surgery. We did not detect any differences in acute complications between patients with and without MHO after bariatric surgery.
conclusionsBariatric surgery in MHO patients in our study was associated with higher weight loss than that in MUHO patients. There were no differences between the two groups in respect to acute complications following surgery.
