Muscle Strength of Lower Limbs as a Postoperative Predictor in Bariatric Surgery.
Observational study in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04129801 (Correlation Between Body Composition and the Muscle Strength in Severe Obese Patients in the Postoperative of Bariatric Surgery), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
objectiveThe aim of our study was to assess postoperative lower limbs muscle strength (MS) as a predictor of late surgical success (36 months).
methodsBody composition analyses and isokinetic dynamometry evaluation were performed before (T0: n=123), six months (T1: n=123) and 36 months (T2: n=79) after Roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB). Surgical success (SS) was defined as ≥ 50% excess weight loss (EWL) 36 months after surgery or ≤ 50% surgical failure (SF).
resultsThere was no difference between relative MS extension (Ext) and flexion (Flex) in T1 and T2. There was also, no difference between relative MS Ext and Flex in T1 and T2 between patients with SS and SF. There was a difference in relative MS Ext (144.9 ± 39.8 Nm/kg x 125.5 ± 29.2 Nm/kg; p=0.04) and Flex (73.6 ± 21.8 Nm/kg x 60.4 ± 15.8 Nm/kg; p=0.02) between SS and SF patients only in T2. Patients with an increment in Ext and Flex MS ≥4 Nm/kg at T1 had approximately 76% of SS at 36 months.
conclusionAn increase of lower limbs MS ≥4 Nm/kg 6 months after RYGB predicts SS at 36 months. CLINICALTRIALS: gov ID: NCT04129801.
