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

backgroundAt least 25 metabolic/bariatric procedures have been proposed globally, 5 formally endorsed. A newer procedure, sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition (SG + TB), appears to markedly reduce weight and improve metabolic syndrome while being relatively simple technically and protective of long-term nutritional stability. We aimed to investigate SG + TB effectiveness and safety.

methodsIn a single-center retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data, SG + TB patients were followed through 12 months. Primary outcomes were changes in weight [body mass index (BMI), total weight loss (TWL)], metabolic parameters [HbA1

resultsBetween 2015 and 2019, 883 patients (mean age 51.8 yrs, BMI 34.1 ± 5.0 kg/m

conclusionIn a series of 833 lower-BMI patients who underwent SG + TB and were followed through 12 months (73.2% follow-up), significant weight loss, comorbidity reduction, and nutritional stability were attained with few major complications and no mortality.
