Clinical Endoscopic and Histologic Findings of a Long-Term Follow-Up (10.7 Years) After Roux-en-Y Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass: a Prospective Study.
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
introductionBariatric surgery, with laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LYGB), is one of the most effective treatments for long-term weight loss. However, there are few publications concerning endoscopic evaluations at late control. The purpose was to evaluate the macroscopic and histological findings at the distal esophagus, gastric pouch, jejunal limb and the evolution of Barrett's esophagus (BE) in the long term.
methodsCohort of 110 patients with obesity underwent LYGB in a university hospital. Several clinical, endoscopic and histological evaluations were performed after surgery. Exclusion criteria were previous bariatric procedure, hiatal hernia > 4 cm, BE with histological dysplasia and body mass index (BMI) > 50 kg/m
resultsAverage age was 38.7 ± 9 years with 70% females. BMI averaged 39.6 ± 6 kg/m
conclusionLYGB is a very effective surgical procedure to control symptoms of GERD and/or endoscopic erosive esophagitis. Besides, regression of Barrett's mucosa to carditis occurred in 62%.
