Long-term home parenteral nutrition in chronic intestinal failure following metabolic and bariatric surgery and its clinical outcomes: A descriptive cohort study.

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
backgroundMetabolic and bariatric surgery is one of the most efficacious treatments for obesity. The increasing incidence of referrals to intestinal rehabilitation programs and the necessity for long-term parenteral nutrition because of bariatric surgery complications have gained attention, yet data remain limited. Our objectives were to (1) assess parenteral nutrition-related complication rates of patients requiring long-term parenteral nutrition because of bariatric surgery complications and (2) compare outcomes between types of metabolic and bariatric surgery.
methodsThis was a descriptive cohort (n = 25) study, which gathered data from patients enrolled in the national registry with a history of metabolic and bariatric surgery at baseline and 2 years and included demographics, biochemical parameters, parenteral regimens, line sepsis, hospitalizations, and functional status.
resultsIn this study, 92% were women with a mean age of 53.8 ± 8.6 years. The most prevalent procedure performed was Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (60%). Short bowel syndrome was observed in 40% of our cohort (n = 10). After 2 years, there was a significant reduction in the need for parenteral nutrition compared with baseline, with 37.5% of patients achieving weaning. No significant disparities were observed in the incidence of line sepsis, hospitalizations, or Karnofsky performance status between baseline and the 2-year follow-up, regardless of the type of surgery. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass was associated with lower body mass index at the 2-year mark.
conclusionIn post-metabolic and bariatric surgery patients, long-term parenteral nutrition is well tolerated based on clinical outcomes and functional status is not influenced by the type of surgery.
