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 and importanceThe intragastric ballon (IGB) is an minimal invasive alternative treatment of weight loss, it has a rate of complications of 2.8-5.5 %. This case highlights the importance of surveillance of the patients to prevent further complications. CASE REPORT: We present a case of a 43 years old women with IMC of 31.25 kg/m DISCUSSION: Given the high cost, complication risk and invasiveness of bariatric surgery, intragastric ballon treatment may present a safer and lower cost option for weight reduction. Most of the available IGB are recommended time for gastric ballon removal is 6-12 months, with the appropriate surveillance. In our case it was not possible to endoscopic retrieval due malfunction of the Spatz-3's valve, thickening wall and its partial migration towards the fundus and cardia which causes an esophageal laceration and gastric bleeding.
conclusionMandatory education and accreditation of physicians dealing with bariatric endoscopy and strict supervision of obese individuals throughout the time they have the balloon in their stomachs will eliminate most complications.
