Article 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 NCT07404163 (The Effect of a Walkway Used in Postoperative Mobilization on Children's Pain, Fear, and Time to Initiate Mobilization), which is not on this map.

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.

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

purposeTo investigate the effects of a planned early targeted mobilization program applied to patients that underwent bariatric surgery with the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy method on gastrointestinal complications (nausea-vomiting, abdominal distention, delayed flatus-defecation, and intolerance of early oral intake). MATERIALS AND

methodsThis prospective, controlled group, quasi-experimental design study was conducted between July 2019 and March 2020 in the general surgery clinic of a training and research hospital with 70 patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy and met the inclusion criteria. The prepared mobilization program was applied to the patients on the 0th, 1st, and 2nd postoperative days, and the gastrointestinal functions of the patients were monitored.

resultsThe intervention group had a significantly shorter time to first flatus, defecation, and oral intake; higher frequency of defecation; lower pain, abdominal distention, and nausea; better tolerance of oral intake; and higher total oral intake compared to the control group (p < 0.05).

conclusionPlanned, early, and targeted mobilization was determined to be a feasible, safe, and cost-effective nursing intervention to prevent gastrointestinal complications in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy.
