Endoscopic Management of Sleeve Stenosis.
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 7 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
purposeSleeve gastrectomy is one of the most popular bariatric procedures performed. A complication of this surgery is sleeve stenosis, causing significant morbidity and the need for corrective intervention. Endoscopic treatment using pneumatic dilation has evolved as an effective, and minimally invasive, technique to successfully treat this complication. Here we report our experience with endoscopic management of sleeve stenosis at a tertiary bariatric center. MATERIAL AND
methodsWe identified all patients that underwent endoscopic management of sleeve stenosis at a tertiary bariatric center from 2010. We reviewed patient demographics, operative data, interval to endoscopic treatment, and outcomes of pneumatic dilations.
resultsSixty seven patients underwent 130 endoscopic dilations. The majority of these patients were female (71%), and at the time of sleeve gastrectomy average age was 43.3 years (range 18-68 years) and average BMI was 41.5 kg/m
conclusionsEndoscopic management of sleeve stenosis is safe and effective, with a success rate of over 75%. During endoscopic management, there was a 1.5% risk of sleeve perforation requiring emergency surgery. Mild weight regain occurred following endoscopic sleeve dilation.
