Prospective evaluation of transoral outlet reduction (TORe) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) failure.
Trial report in Surgical endoscopy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsWeight regain after RYGB is multifactorial including dilatation of the gastro-jejunal anastomosis. Transoral outlet reduction (TORe) procedure is a minimally invasive alternative to surgical anastomotic revision.
methodsWe conducted a prospective, multicenter, simple blind, randomized study in patients with weight regain following RYGB, comparing the efficacy of conventional nutritional and behavioral management associated with a TORe procedure (TORe group) with conventional management alone and a Sham procedure (Sham group). The main objective of this study was to evaluate the percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) at 12 months after endoscopy.
resultsFrom January 2015 to January 2019, 73 subjects were randomized in four French Bariatric centers. The final analysis involved 50 subjects, 25 in each group, 44 women, 6 men, with an average BMI of 40.6 kg/m
conclusionsAfter RYGBP failure linked to the dilatation of the gastro-jejunal anastomosis, TORe procedure with nutritional management results in significantly higher %EWL at 12 months compared to patients with nutritional management alone. As surgery, this minimally invasive endoscopic procedure can be associated with severe adverse events.
