Short-term cardiovascular events after bariatric surgery in patients with metabolic syndrome.
Article in Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundPatients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease along with other adverse events after bariatric surgery.
objectivesThe incidence of short-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with MetS undergoing bariatric surgery is not well characterized.
settingAccredited bariatric surgery centers in the United States and Canada.
methodsA total of 760,076 patients aged ≥18 years with body mass index ≥35 kg/m
resultsOf the 577,882 patients included, 111,128 (19.2%) exhibited MetS. Patients with MetS more frequently experienced MACE compared with patients without MetS (.3% versus .1%; P < .001). The odds of MACE were greater for patients with MetS versus Non-MetS (odds ratio [OR] 2.87; 95% CI, 2.49-3.32) in the unadjusted analysis. MetS without HLD, MetS with HLD, and Non-MetS with HLD are significantly associated with MACE when compared with those with non-MetS without HLD.
conclusionsPatients with MetS have an increased frequency of cardiac events following bariatric surgery. Future studies should determine if optimization of 1 or more components of MetS or other related co-morbidities reduces the cardiovascular risk for patients.
