Efficacy of the Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists Liraglutide and Semaglutide for the Treatment of Weight Regain After Bariatric surgery: a Retrospective Observational Study.
Observational study in Obesity surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06132477 (Biometabolic Impact of Continuation of GLP-1 Agonists Following Bariatric), which is not on this map. Cited by 89 papers, 14 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
purposeWeight regain after bariatric surgery occurs in up to a third of patients and reduces treatment-associated health benefits. The efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity is well established, but their role in the treatment of weight regain after bariatric surgery remains to be defined. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a single centre retrospective observational study conducted at a Swiss bariatric reference centre. Patients with 6 months of treatment with GLP1-RA, up until November 2021, due to weight regain after bariatric surgery were identified. Data on body weight and relevant clinical parameters were collected before and after 6 months of treatment with GLP1-RA. Data are presented as median (interquartile range).
resultsFifty patients (82% female) were included. Before GLP1-RA treatment (liraglutide, n=29; semaglutide, n=21), weight and BMI were 90.5 kg (83.4, 107.9) and 34.0 kg/m
conclusionFor patients experiencing weight regain after bariatric surgery, two-thirds of the weight regain can be safely lost with GLP1-RA, providing clinicians with a therapeutic option for this clinical challenge, and highlights the need for a large-scale randomized clinical trial.
