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

Introduction: & Importance: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a widely accepted and effective bariatric surgery for achieving weight loss in patients with extreme obesity. Performing this surgical procedure in patients with congenital anatomical changes including situs inversus (SI) is a challenge for the surgical team. In this condition, the orientation of intra-abdominal organs is the mirror image of those in normal populations. Case presentation: Herein, we present a 29-year-old female with situs inversus totalis who successfully underwent an LSG surgery with proper weight loss post-operatively and no early and late complications. Clinical discussion: By reviewing the literature for patients with SI undergoing the same procedure, all patients achieved significant weight loss. Three out of nineteen cases experienced complications which were controlled without significant morbidity or mortality.Conclusion: we concluded that LSG will be a safe and effective surgery for the treatment of extreme obesity in SI patients, if the condition is diagnosed preoperatively.
