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

Postprandial hypoglycemia is a rare complication after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The underlying pathophysiology remains to be fully understood. We present a case of a 49-year-old woman with a past medical history of mesenteric thrombosis due to prothrombin-related thrombophilia, which culminated in RYGB 10 years prior to presentation. The patient had been given anticoagulation treatment for several years, which she abandoned one year prior to presentation. She presented to our consultation with episodes of postprandial hypoglycemia and severe anemia due to iron and vitamin B12 deficiencies. Dietary adjustments were set in place to prevent hypoglycemia and neuroglycopenic symptoms. Intravenous iron and intramuscular vitamin B12 supplementation led to full recovery of hemoglobin levels, allowing restart of oral anticoagulation to prevent recurrence of thrombotic events.
