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

The rate of hiatal hernia (HH) repair during conversion bariatric surgery is largely unknown. We sought to determine this rate in 12,788 patients undergoing conversion surgery using the 2020 participant use file of the MBSAQIP database. Concurrent HH repair was performed in 24.1% of conversion cases; most commonly during SG to RYGB (33.1%), followed by AGB to SG conversion (20.2%). The remaining conversion pathways had a repair rate around 13%. Only 12.1% of HH repairs were performed using a mesh. GERD was the primary indication for conversion in 65% of the SG to RYGB cases. A much higher proportion of patients with concomitant HH repair reported GERD as the main reason for conversion than those without a HH repair (44.5% vs. 23.7%; p<0.001).
