Long-term outcomes of sleeve gastrectomy in a patient group with mainly high BMI: a single-center study.
Article in Updates in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Since long-term results after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are rather scarce, this study aims to add LSG results with a minimum of 5 years of follow-up. Prospectively collected data from primary LSG in a tertiary bariatric center from 08/2007 to 12/2018 with follow-up ≥ 5 years were analyzed retrospectively. Primary endpoints included total body weight loss (%TBWL) and excess weight loss (%EWL), insufficient weight loss (IWL), weight regain (WR), remission of associated diseases, development of new-onset gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and nutritional deficiencies. Furthermore, the study focused on incidence, time point, and causes of conversion and revision operations. A total of 207 LSG (132 female, mean age 43 (± 10.7) years) entered this study. 33.3% (52 of 156 without conversion) were lost to follow-up for ≥ 5-year data. Perioperative mortality was 0.5% (n = 1). %TBWL was 27.1% (± 12.4) and %EWL 52.5% (± 24.3). IWL or WR was found in 48.8%, new-onset GERD occurred in 27.5% of cases, leading to conversion in 26.6% and revisions in 2%. Nutritional deficiencies were observed in 23.7%, while resolution of associated diseases was sufficient. This patient group with a mean BMI > 50 kg/m
