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.

2 · The registry

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

introduction and purposeClinical trials in the field of bariatrics have frequently been gender imbalanced, with males representing only 20% of examinees. Long-term gender-oriented results in one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), and specifically quality of life (QOL) parameters, have not been addressed sufficiently. A better understanding of gender's effect on OAGB outcomes can play an important role in selecting the appropriate bariatric surgery for patients. Our study was aimed at examining mid-term gender-associated outcome of OAGB, including the effect on QOL. MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent OAGB at surgical ward A, SUMC, Israel, between 2015 and 2020. Demographics, body mass index (BMI), and comorbidities were extracted from the national medical records system. Follow-up quality of life (QOL) and weight parameters were supplemented via telephone questionnaires, using the Bariatric Analysis and Reporting Outcome System (BAROS).

resultsA total of 152 patients were included; of these, 51 (33.6%) were males, with an average follow-up period of 4.1 (± 1.3) years post-surgery. Basic demographics showed no significant pre- or post-surgery differences between males and females, except for pre-op weight (which as expected was higher for males). Males had a higher overall BAROS score than females (3.8 ± 2.1 vs. 2.6 ± 2.1, p < 0.001).

conclusionsOAGB surgery results in better outcomes for male than for female patients as measured by the BAROS, despite a similar BMI reduction, and with no difference in complications. Gender-specific outcomes are one of the variables that one should be aware of in optimizing patient selection and pre-operative patient counseling.
