Twelve-Month Outcomes in Patients with Obesity Following Bariatric Surgery-A Single Centre Experience.
Article in Nutrients, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundAs obesity rates continue to rise worldwide, many surgeons consider bariatric procedures as a possible cure for the upcoming obesity pandemic. Excess weight represents a risk factor for multiple metabolic disorders, especially for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). There is a strong correlation between the two pathologies. The aim of this study is to highlight the safety and short-term results of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB, laparoscopic gastric plication (LGP) and intragastric balloon (IGB) as methods used in the treatment of obesity. We followed the remission or amelioration of comorbidities, tracked metabolic parameters, weight loss curves and hoped to outline the profile of the obese patient in Romania.
methodsThe target population of this study was represented by patients (n = 488) with severe obesity who qualified for the metabolic surgery criteria. Starting from 2013 to 2019, patients underwent four types of bariatric procedures and were subsequently monitored over the course of 12 months in the 3rd Surgical Clinic at "Sf. Spiridon" Emergency Hospital Iași. Descriptive evaluation indicators, as well as those of analytical evaluation were used as statistical processing methods.
resultsA significant decrease in body weight was recorded during monitoring and was more pronounced for patients who underwent LSG and RYGB. T2DM was identified in 24.6% of patients. Partial remission of T2DM was present in 25.3% of cases, and total remission was identified in 61.4% of patients. Mean blood glucose levels, triglycerides, LDL and total cholesterol levels decreased significantly during monitoring. Vitamin D increased significantly regardless of the type of surgery performed, while mean levels of vitamin B12 decreased significantly during monitoring. Post-operative intraperitoneal bleeding occurred in 6 cases (1.22%) and a reintervention for haemostasis was required.
conclusionsAll procedures performed were safe and effective methods of weight loss and improved associated comorbidities and metabolic parameters.
