1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Bariatric surgery has become an accepted and effective treatment for morbid obesity. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is the most common weight loss procedure, in which patients on average lose 60% of their excess body weight. Recently, a completely endoscopic approach was developed that takes advantage of an endoscopic suturing device to plicate the greater curvature of the stomach into sleeve-like anatomy. The endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty has been shown to be safe with minimal complications and good weight loss outcomes. We present a case of a rare and dangerous complication of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty that required emergent surgical intervention.
