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

backgroundThe prevalence of patients suffering from extreme obesity (body mass index (BMI) ≥ 50) has significantly increased over the past three decades, surpassing the rise in the general population of overweight patients. Weight loss outcomes after bariatric surgery in patients suffering from extreme obesity are less favorable, with a higher incidence of weight regain. Variations of existing bariatric procedures have been proposed to address this issue. One such variation is adding a gastric band to limit the expansion of the newly created pouch. Limited data exist regarding the effectiveness of this procedure, called the banded one-anastomosis gastric bypass (BOAGB) procedure, compared to other bariatric procedures.

methodIn this retrospective study, we compared all patients who underwent the BOAGB procedure at the Bariatric Surgery Unit in our Medical Center with a postoperative follow-up of at least 1 year with patients who underwent a one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) or sleeve gastrectomy (SG) procedures. Data collected included demographics, comorbidities, surgical outcomes, complications, and postoperative quality-of-life assessments.

resultsOne hundred eleven patients were enlisted to our study during the relevant study period-24 patients underwent the BOAGB procedure, 43 underwent OAGB, and 44 underwent a SG. Lost to follow-up beyond 30 days was 9% (at 1-year post-surgery, we were able to establish contact with 101 patients). The pre-op BMI was significantly higher in the BOAGB group compared to the other procedures. Additionally, a higher prevalence of diabetes was observed in the BOAGB group. The duration of surgery was significantly longer for the BOAGB procedure. No significant differences were found in surgical complications. Overall, all procedures resulted in significant excess weight loss (EWL) or change in BMI, improvement in comorbidities, and improved quality of life postoperatively.

conclusionsThe BOAGB procedure, like OAGB and SG, demonstrated favorable weight loss outcomes and weight maintenance 1 year postoperatively without significant differences between the procedures. The BOAGB procedure is relatively new, with good bariatric outcomes and a favorable safety profile. Long-term study is needed to evaluate these various bariatric procedures' efficacy further.
