Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in a transgender patient: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 frequency of transgender individuals seeking gender affirming care is increasing over the last decade. Transgender patients suffer from obesity and psychiatric illness at elevated levels compared with the general population. A 54-year-old male-to-female transition patient presented with morbid obesity, hyperlipidaemia, and weight gain 2 years after their gender-transition and hormonal therapy. She received a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). At 7 months postoperatively, the patient has experienced 49% excess body weight loss, her body dissatisfaction had resolved and has completed further plastic surgery. The RYGB is an effective method for weight loss as well as benefits from cardiovascular disease, cancer, metabolic related conditions, and psychosocial wellbeing. Holistic treatment in conjunction with dietetic and psychology services can help maintain long-term weight management. Bariatric surgery combined with a multidisciplinary care team addressing medical and psychiatric concerns is integral to achieving and maintaining weight loss and gender identity.
