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

introductionRoux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has been the preferred operation for obese patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, some patients are hesitant to undergo bypass. Obese patients have a multifactorial predisposition to GERD, including lower esophageal sphincter (LES) dysfunction and aberrant pressure gradients across their diaphragmatic crura. Among non-obese patients, anti-reflux surgery (ARS) with hiatal hernia (HH) repair and LES augmentation has shown excellent long-term results. We aimed to determine whether patient satisfaction and GERD recurrence differed between obese and non-obese patients who underwent ARS.

methodsReview of patients who underwent ARS between January 2012 and June 2021 was performed. Perioperative and postoperative characteristics were compared across three BMI groups: BMI < 30 kg/m

resultsFour-hundred thirteen patients were identified, of which 294 (71.1%) had BMI < 30 kg/m

conclusionsARS with HH repair and LES augmentation may be appropriate for select patients across a range of BMIs, including those with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m
