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

backgroundWith the upsurge of obesity in Australia and worldwide, the incidence of metabolic surgery is increasing in women of reproductive age. Metabolic surgery reduces the rate of gestational diabetes mellitus, however, the risk remains about that for the general population.

aimTo evaluate maternal and perinatal outcomes of consecutive women with GDM post-metabolic surgery presenting to an endocrine antenatal clinic in a single tertiary centre.

methodsA retrospective cohort study of women with GDM after metabolic surgery were audited between 2020 and 2024.

resultsThis cohort of 36 women were aged 32.9 (± 4.7) years and 3.3 (±2.0) years post-surgery with the majority undergoing sleeve gastrectomy (97.2%). Gestational diabetes was diagnosed at 25 (±6

conclusionNutritional deficiencies occur commonly in women with gestational diabetes after metabolic surgery. There was a high rate of composite adverse neonatal outcome suggesting that these pregnancies may be higher risk. Further research is required to evaluate the optimal methods of screening and recommended glycaemic targets.
