Effects of Socioeconomic Status on Early Results After Sleeve Gastrectomy.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose Obesity and its related metabolic diseases are a widespread public health problem worldwide. In recent years, surgical methods have played a very important role in the treatment of obesity and metabolic diseases. This study aims to investigate the effects of patients' socioeconomic status (SES) on the early results of sleeve gastrectomy (SG), which is the most preferred metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) procedure in the world. Methods Data of SG patients who were operated on in the general surgery clinic of a tertiary hospital were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 322 patients who completed at least three months of follow-up after surgery were included in the study. Patients were divided into three groups - low, medium, and high - according to their SES. The effects of SES on weight loss and comorbidities associated with obesity were evaluated. The one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Kruksal Wallis, and chi-square tests were used in the statistical analysis of the data. Results The groups were homogeneous in terms of age and body mass index (BMI). There was no statistically significant difference among income groups in terms of the age, BMI, and excess weight loss (EWL) variables (p>0.05). In addition, when the relations among income groups and gender, diabetes mellitus (DM), and other diseases were examined, it was concluded that there was no relation between income status and other variables (p>0.05). Conclusion SES of patients has no effect on the early results of SG.
