A Nationwide Report on Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery in 2019-2022: Utilizing the Korean Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Database Registry.
Article in Journal of metabolic and bariatric surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Purpose: The introduction of insurance coverage in Korea has led to a rise in the number of bariatric and metabolic surgeries. This study aims to provide a comprehensive report on the nationwide status of these surgeries from 2019 to 2022, utilizing data from the Korean Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (KSMBS) database registry. Materials and Methods: This study analyzed data from the KSMBS registry, collected from 68 certified surgeons across 58 institutions from January 2019 to December 2022. After excluding non-relevant cases, the final analysis included 7,377 patients. Results: Annually, data for 1,869, 1,934, 1,782, and 1,792 patients were collected from 2019 to 2022, respectively. The rate of revisional operations accounted for 7.1%, 8.2%, 4.6%, and 4.5% of the total cases each year. The most common primary surgery was Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG, ranging from 71.1% to 78.9%), followed by Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB, ranging from 9.6% to 13.4%). The surgeries demonstrated a high safety profile, with a low morbidity rate (0.5% to 0.9%) and a zero mortality rate over the 4 years. Within 2 years post-operation, the Total Weight Loss Percentage was similar among patients who underwent SG, RYGB, and Sleeve Plus procedures. Conclusion: The number of bariatric and metabolic surgeries in Korea has increased significantly since the introduction of national insurance coverage. SG was the most performed primary procedure. All surgical procedures showed safe short-term outcomes and yielded reasonable results upon follow-up, indicating a positive impact of insurance coverage on the accessibility and safety of surgeries.
