Trajectory of Gonadal Hormones in Adolescent Males up to 2 Years After Sleeve Gastrectomy.
Observational study 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 NCT02557438 (Bone Metabolism in Adolescents Undergoing Bariatric Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has many metabolic benefits and leads to improvements in testosterone levels, which means improvement in the Leydig cell function of the testis. However, data about the effects of SG on Sertoli cell function (as assessed by inhibin B) are not available. In this preliminary study, we evaluate, for the first time, the effect of SG in adolescents after SG. We evaluate 16 adolescent and young adult males, six of whom underwent SG and followed them for 2 years. We report that Leydig cell function (as assessed by testosterone levels) improved and was associated with degree of weight loss. Sertoli cell function improved only slightly in SG group and did not change compared to the nonsurgical controls, and these changes were not associated with degree of weight loss. Thus, we conclude that larger and long-term follow-up studies are required to evaluate the changes in Sertoli cell function after SG as that is integral to male fertility.Clinical Trial Registration: NCT02557438.
