The US Prevalence of Metabolic Surgery in Patients with Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes Has Not Increased Despite Recommendations from the American Diabetes Association.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeMetabolic surgery dramatically improves type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In 2017, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommended metabolic surgery as the optimal treatment for patients with T2DM and Body Mass Index (BMI) > 40. We sought to evaluate whether or not that recommendation is being implemented. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the trend of bariatric surgery 2 years prior and 2 years following the ADA statement. MATERIALS AND
methodsA retrospective analysis of primary bariatric procedures on patients with class III obesity (BMI > 40 kg/m
resultsFrom 2015 to 2018, 164,535 patients with T2DM underwent bariatric surgery. The majority had a BMI > 40 kg/m
conclusionUtilization of metabolic surgery in patients with obesity and T2DM has not improved following the updated 2017 ADA guidelines. There is a clear need for more awareness of these guidelines among providers, patients, and the public.
