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

introductionWeight loss failure or weight regain after primary Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is a challenge for bariatric surgeons. Failure to achieve a body mass index (BMI) <35 kg/m

methodsRetrospective data were reviewed for 22 patients who had undergone RYGB and failed to achieve an excess weight loss (EWL) >50% or BMI <35 kg/m

resultsThe mean BMI values before and after DRYGB were 43.7 kg/m

conclusionThe DRYGB procedure results in substantial and sustained long-term weight loss. Due to the risk of malnutrition, patients must be strictly followed for life after the procedure.
