Seven Years Follow-Up after Sleeve Gastrectomy in Adolescents.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundAdolescent obesity is a growing global health challenge, often accompanied by serious comorbidities. This study evaluates the long-term outcomes of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in adolescents, focusing on weight loss, comorbidity resolution, and post-surgical complications over a seven-year period. MATERIALS AND
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 63 adolescents (mean age: 15.4 ± 2.39 years) at Tanta university hospitals, Egypt, who underwent LSG between 2014 and 2015. Outcomes assessed included body mass index (BMI), percent total weight loss (%TWL), percent excess weight loss (%EWL), excess BMI loss (%EBMIL), comorbidity resolution, and gastric volumetry at 1, 3, 5, and 7 years postoperatively.
resultsMean BMI declined from 48.1 ± 10.55 to 29.3 ± 8.53 kg/m
conclusionsLSG is a safe and effective long-term intervention for adolescents with severe obesity, yielding sustained weight loss and significant comorbidity remission, with favorable fertility outcomes among married patients. Despite modest weight regain and a limited rate of reoperations, outcomes support LSG as a durable option. Long-term follow-up and individualized care remain essential.
