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.

Abstract

purposeThe aim of this study was to compare the effect of antral resection versus antral preservation sleeve gastrectomy on the post-operative GLP-1, glycemic control, and weight loss in adolescents suffering from severe obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study included 36 adolescents. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: group (A) and group (B). Each group included 18 patients who underwent LSG, starting transection at 2 cm or 5 cm from the pyloric ring in group (A) and group (B), respectively. They were followed up at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months post-operatively. The outcomes were the post-operative GLP-1 response, glycemic control, weight loss, and safety.

resultsThe improvements in the body mass index and the percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) were statistically significant within each group. The mean GLP-1 levels showed significant increase at the 1, 3, and 6 months but not in the 12 and 24 months in all the studied samples within each group. The mean HbA1c levels and post-prandial serum C-peptide significantly improved within each group (P < 0.05). No statistical differences in the weight loss, %EWL, GLP-1, HbA1c, C-peptide changes, and complication rates were observed between both groups. Diabetic remission was significantly higher (88.9%) in group (A).

conclusionsLSG resulted in generalized significant GLP-1 initial response that decreased over time. The reduced antrum size did not influence the GLP-1 response, glycemic control, or insulin resistance, but resulted in significantly better T2D remission. Since the study examines a small number of patients, further studies are needed.
