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

Obesity is a chronic and complex syndrome resulting from the interactions of genetic, environmental, metabolic, and psychological factors. This dataset collected clinical information from 101 patients with obesity who had undergone large-volume laser-assisted liposuction. Demographic, personal, and family history of disease were recorded, and weight and height were determined and subsequently used to calculate body mass index, % of total weight loss (%TWL), and % of excess body mass index loss (% EBMIL). Short-term incidence (<30 days) in post-operative complications was assessed according to the Clavien-Dindo System. The main outcomes analysed were the changes in body weight-related variables before and after the first three post-operative months and the incidence of early surgical complications. Due to the limited availability of structured, open-access datasets with information on traditional and laser-assisted lipolysis weight outcomes, this dataset is a valuable resource for researchers conducting comparative studies on liposuction procedures.
