Pharmacotherapeutic options for weight regain after bariatric surgery.
Article in Current treatment options in gastroenterology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewWe sought to critically evaluate the recent literature published over the past 3 years on the topic of weight regain after bariatric surgery in children, adolescents, and adults, with an emphasis on clinically- relevant information for pharmacologic treatment of weight regain after metabolic and bariatric surgery.
findingsThere are multiple pharmacotherapeutic agents available to treat obesity in children, adolescents, and adults; these agents have varying efficacy and indications for use and have been studied in a variety of clinical and research scenarios. We present an overview of these findings. SUMMARY: This review represents a comprehensive compilation of the recently published data on efficacy of anti-obesity pharmacotherapy in the treatment of weight regain after bariatric surgery for children, adolescents, and adults.
