Pregnancy and Bariatric Surgery: Significant Variation in Bariatric Surgeons' Practices and Preferences: A National Survey.
Article in Bariatric surgical practice and patient care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Background: Bariatric complications may occur during pregnancy, potentially causing serious maternal and fetal problems. The aim of this study was to determine the current practice and preferences of bariatric surgeons regarding the pregnancy care of fertile women before and after bariatric surgery. Methods: A 26-question anonymous online survey was designed and sent to all bariatric surgeons of the Dutch Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery. Results: At least one bariatric surgeon from each bariatric center ( Conclusion: There is an inconsistent and often below guideline standard daily practice regarding pregnancy before and after bariatric surgery. There is limited experience with pregnant women with acute bariatric complications. Referral to tertiary centers is inadequate. Better information provision for both professionals and patients regarding possible complications is needed.
