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

backgroundLess than 50% of eligible candidates who are referred complete Bariatric Metabolic Surgery (BMS). The factors influencing the decision to complete BMS, particularly how these factors vary across different racial and ethnic groups, remain largely unexplored.

methodsThis prospective cohort study included adult patients referred to a bariatric surgeon or obesity medicine program between July 2019-September 2022. Sociodemographic characteristics, body mass index (BMI), anxiety, depression, body appreciation, and patient-physician relationship information were collected via survey and electronic health records. The association between BMS completion and potential decision-driving factors was examined using Classification and Regression Tree (CART) analysis.

resultsA total of 406 BMS -eligible patients participated in the study (mean [SD] age: 47.5 [11.6] years; 87.2% women; 18.0% Hispanic, 39% non-Hispanic Black [NHB], and 39% non-Hispanic White [NHW]; mean [SD] BMI: 45.9 [10.1] kg/m

conclusionThese findings highlight racial and ethnic group differences in the factors motivating individuals to complete BMS. By acknowledging these differences, healthcare providers can support patients from different backgrounds more effectively in their decision-making process regarding BMS.
