Cognition in patients with post-bariatric hypoglycemia.
Article in Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04430582 (Pilot Study - Cognition in Patients With Hypoglycemia, Without Diabetes), which is not on this 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

Abstract
objectiveBariatric surgery, a highly effective treatment for obesity and associated comorbidities, may improve cognition and brain volume in parallel with cardiometabolic function. However, some post-bariatric individuals develop post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH), which can be frequent and severe. The impact of recurrent hypoglycemia on cognition in PBH is unknown. The objective of this study was to determine whether individuals with PBH display reduced cognitive function compared with postsurgical counterparts without hypoglycemia.
methodsFourteen adults with a history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass with hypoglycemia (PBH+, n = 7) or without PBH (PBH-, n = 7) completed assessments of memory, executive function, attention, and psychomotor speed.
resultsPBH+ individuals displayed significantly decreased performance in category fluency (p < 0.01), category switching (p < 0.01), and category switching accuracy (p < 0.01), compared with PBH- individuals. Performance in the first (p = 0.03) and third intervals (p = 0.045) of verbal fluency was significantly lower in PBH+ individuals versus PBH- individuals. All other assessments did not differ.
conclusionsPBH+ individuals may be at greater risk for cognitive impairment compared with PBH- individuals, as suggested by impaired semantic processing and cognitive flexibility, as well as greater difficulty initiating and sustaining word retrieval.
