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
The increasing rate of obesity and life expectancy will lead to increasing numbers of bariatric procedures in the elderly. We aim to report the early (≤ 30 days) adverse events of One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) in this patient population. Assuta Bariatric Centers in Israel. Retrospective review of perioperative OAGB outcomes between elderly group (≥ 65 years) and non-elderly group (18-64 years) at high-volume bariatric centers between January 2017-December 2021. Operative time, length of stay (LOS), and overall ≤ 30 days complication rates, as ranked by the Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) were compared. There were 6618 patients (non-elderly group) and 104 (elderly group) who underwent OAGB. Gender and preoperative BMI were comparable between the two age groups. The elderly group had significantly higher rate of ischemic heart disease and chronic renal failure. The number of patients with LOS ≥ 3 days was significantly higher in the elderly group [19.4% (n = 20) vs. 6.6% (n = 331), respectively; p < 0.001]. The total early adverse events were higher in the elderly group with no statistical significance [7.7% (n = 8) vs. 3.8% (n = 250), respectively; p = 0.062]. The rate of minor and major adverse events and reoperation rate was comparable between the two groups. The rate of readmissions was significantly higher in the elderly group 5.8% (n = 6) vs. 1.9% (n = 124), respectively p = 0.015. There was 0.06% mortality (n = 2) in the non-elderly group. OAGB is a relatively safe metabolic and bariatric surgery for elderly obese patients with early (≤ 30 days) morbidity rates similar to the non-elderly population.
