Impact of Self-Monitoring on Weight Loss After Bariatric Surgery.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
backgroundWeight loss after bariatric surgery varies among patients. Patients who do not comply with self-monitoring are predicted to lose less weight than those who comply with self-monitoring.
objectiveTo assess the effect of compliance with self-monitoring behavior on long-term %excess weight loss (%EWL) and %total weight loss (%TWL) among patients receiving laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB).
methodsWe used retrospective analysis to evaluate the self-monitoring behavior of patients and their weight changes throughout a 2-year follow-up. The participants were divided into two groups: group 1 consisted of participants who kept self-monitoring behavior records for all follow-ups and group 2 consisted of participants who kept self-monitoring behavior records for only six months of follow-up. Our investigators used telephone interviews to collect the data. By comparing %EWL and %TWL, we assessed the possible relationship between the long-term self-monitoring behavior, weight loss outcome, and operation type.
resultsThere were 384 included samples. %EWL was significantly different between group 1 and group 2, and group 1 participants had better outcomes regardless of operational method. In group 2, LRYGB patients had better %EWL outcomes than LSG patients.
conclusionsPatients with long-term self-monitoring behaviors have better %EWL and %TWL. Patients in LRYGB group had better weight loss outcomes than the LSG group.
