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

Weight loss of 5%-10% is advised in medical weight management (MWM) programmes prior to bariatric surgery but it remains to be established whether it influences postoperative weight loss outcomes. We studied postoperative percent total weight loss (%TWL) in 168 patients categorized by preoperative referral weight loss <5% or ≥5% in a UK NHS bariatric centre. Eighty-six (51.2%) patients achieved sustained referral weight loss <5% (Group A) and 82 (48.8%) ≥5% (Group B). Overall postoperative %TWL in Group A compared with Group B was 30.0% versus 28.3% (p = .30) at 12 months and 32.5% versus 29.6% (p = .20) at 24 months. There were no significant differences in postoperative %TWL at 12 and 24 months when categorized by procedure (gastric bypass, n = 106; or sleeve gastrectomy, n = 62), age or sex. Preoperative weight loss during intensive specialist MWM did not influence postoperative weight loss up to 24 months with gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy.
