Fertility outcomes following bariatric surgery.
Article in World journal of experimental medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Obesity impacts human health in more than one way. The influence of obesity on human reproduction and fertility has been extensively examined. Bariatric surgery (BS) has been used as an effective tool to achieve long-term weight loss in both sexes. BS improves hormonal profiling, increasing the odds of spontaneous pregnancy and success rates following assisted reproductive techniques in infertile females. For obese males, BS does improve sexual function and hormonal profile; however, conflicting reports discuss reduced sperm parameters following BS. Although the benefits of BS in the fertility field are acknowledged, many areas call for further research, like choosing the safest surgical techniques, determining the optimal timing to get pregnant, and resolving the uncertainty of sperm parameters.
