Psychiatric comorbidity as a prospective predictor of long-term weight and psychosocial outcomes after bariatric surgery.

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
objectivesPsychiatric comorbidity is common among the bariatric population although the prognostic significance of psychiatric comorbidity on outcomes is uncertain. This prospective study examined differences in weight and psychosocial functioning outcomes based on lifetime and current (post-surgical) psychiatric comorbidity.
methodsParticipants were 140 adults in a RCT for loss-of-control (LOC)-eating approximately six months post-bariatric surgery. Two structured interviews were administered: the Eating Disorder Examination-Bariatric Surgery Version (EDE-BSV) to assess LOC-eating and eating-disorder psychopathology, and the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI) to assess lifetime and current (post-surgical) psychiatric disorders. The EDE-BSV and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) were repeated at post-treatment and 24-month follow-ups.
resultsLifetime (75.7%) and current/post-surgical (25%) psychiatric diagnoses were common. Groups with and without psychiatric comorbidity did not differ significantly in weight loss outcomes at any timepoint but psychiatric comorbidity was associated significantly with greater LOC-eating, eating-disorder psychopathology, and depression.
conclusionsAmong participants with LOC-eating post-bariatric surgery, lifetime and post-surgical psychiatric comorbidity was not associated with acute or longer-term weight outcomes but predicted poorer psychosocial functioning. Findings challenge prevailing views that psychiatric comorbidity is related to poorer longer-term weight outcomes following bariatric surgery but highlight its clinical significance as it is associated with broad psychosocial difficulties.
