Outcomes of Bariatric Surgery Before, During, and After Solid Organ Transplantation.
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 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
backgroundBariatric surgery (BS) may help transplant patients by improving their comorbidities and graft function and reducing the recurrence of the disease that led to the transplant. Different timings for BS have been proposed. This study aims to describe the outcomes of BS before, during, and after solid organ transplantation.
methodsWe identified patients with history of solid organ transplantation that underwent BS between January 1, 2012, and April 31, 2022, at our hospital site. We analyzed patients' demographics, obesity-related comorbidities, and transplant history. Measured outcomes included post-operative morbidity; readmission; comorbidity management; weight loss at 6-, 12-, and 24-month follow-up; and survival.
resultsSeventy-eight patients were included in our analysis, with a median age of 57 (28-75) years and a median BMI of 40.91 (28.9-61) kg/m
conclusionBS before, during, or after solid organ transplant is safe, leads to a significant weight loss and improvement of obesity-related comorbidities, and improves patient's survival.
