Baseline 25(OH)D level is a prognostic indicator for bariatric surgery readmission: a matched retrospective cohort study.

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
Introduction: Managing postsurgical complications is crucial in optimizing the outcomes of bariatric surgery, for which preoperative nutritional assessment is essential. In this study, we aimed to evaluate and validate the efficacy of vitamin D levels as an immunonutritional biomarker for bariatric surgery prognosis. Methods: This matched retrospective cohort study included adult patients who underwent bariatric surgery at a tertiary medical center in China between July 2021 and June 2022. Patients with insufficient and sufficient 25(OH)D (< 30 ng/mL) were matched in a 1:1 ratio. Follow-up records of readmission at 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year were obtained to identify prognostic indicators. Results: A matched cohort of 452 patients with a mean age of 37.14 ± 9.25 years and involving 69.47% females was enrolled. Among them, 94.25 and 5.75% underwent sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass, respectively. Overall, 25 patients (5.54%) were readmitted during the 1-year follow-up. The prognostic nutritional index and controlling nutritional status scores calculated from inflammatory factors did not efficiently detect malnourishment. A low 25(OH)D level (3.58 [95% CI, 1.16-11.03]) and surgery season in summer or autumn (2.68 [95% CI, 1.05-6.83]) increased the risk of 1-year readmission in both the training and validation cohorts. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.747 (95% CI, 0.640-0.855), with a positive clinical benefit in the decision curve analyses. The relationship between 25(OH)D and 6-month readmission was U-shaped. Conclusion: Serum 25(OH)D levels have prognostic significance in bariatric surgery readmission. Hence, preferable 25(OH)D levels are recommended for patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
