Is It Possible to Predict Difficulties During Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy? A Single Centre Experience.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a widely performed bariatric surgery across the globe. Understanding preoperative risk factors for possible intraoperative complications can aid in predicting surgical outcomes and shaping the approach to the procedure. This study aimed to identify and analyze potential risk factors associated with intraoperative difficulties during LSG. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe analysis encompassed consecutive patients who underwent LSG from 2017 to 2020. Patients who encountered intraoperative difficulties during the procedure were categorized into Group 1, whereas those who did not experience such complications were placed in Group 2. To identify potential risk factors for intraoperative challenges, a thorough evaluation of demographic characteristics was conducted, including variables such as age, body mass index (BMI), comorbidities, and previous surgical history.
resultsGroup 1 included 37 patients (11.71%), while Group 2 comprised 279 patients (88.29%). Apart from higher rates of diabetes, pulmonary disease, and sleep apnea in Group 1, no significant differences were observed between the groups regarding demographic parameters. A univariate logistic regression analysis identified several risk factors associated with intraoperative difficulties, including a body mass index (BMI) greater than 50 kg/m
conclusionsThe sole significant factor influencing the occurrence of intraoperative difficulties was the level of the surgeon's experience.
