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

introductionObese patients represent a large proportion of patients experiencing recurrent reflux and re-operations after initial anti-reflux surgery. However, there is a limited data describing the impact of obesity on GERD recurrence following re-operative procedures.

methodsA review of patients who underwent re-operative anti-reflux surgery (Re-ARS) between 2012 and 2023. Peri-operative characteristics and post-operative Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease-Health Related Quality of Life (GERD-HRQL) scores were compared across the three BMI categories: (BMI < 25 kg/m

resultsOf 718 patients who underwent robotic ARS, 84 patients (11.6%) underwent Re-ARS, of which 29.7% had a BMI < 25 kg/m

conclusionGERD-HRQL scores in obese patients are expected to improve similarly compared to non-obese patients. Indicating that Re-ARS may be appropriate for patients across a range of BMIs.
