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
Background: Obesity is a significant global health issue, leading to various physical and psychological complications. Bariatric surgery is considered to be an efficient treatment for obesity, contributing to weight loss and metabolic improvements. While the physical benefits of bariatric procedures are well documented, the psychological effects, particularly gender differences in quality of life and depression post-surgery, remain an area of interest in the Indian context. Purpose: The study aims to examine the gender changes in QoL and depression among individuals experienced the Surgery BS. It focuses on three surgical procedures: Roux-en-Y gastric Bypass (RYGB), One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG). The study hypothesised that gender differences exist in post-surgical QoL outcomes and depression levels. Methods: A quantitative, cross-sectional research design is employed to assess the gender differences among 200 post-bariatric surgery patients (100 males, 100 females) who had undergone surgery between 3 and 6 months. The equipment that is utilised is the WHOQoL-BREF and even the BDI-II. Hence, the ANOVA and Results: The results outlined that there is no significant difference in depression and Qol among the patients of post-bariatric surgery. The findings even demonstrated that no differences in QoL scores among distinct processes of surgeries among both genders. However, the core trend in depression stages is observed in males based on their surgery type, recommending the possible changes in the outcomes across distinct processes. Conclusion: The results identified no gender-based disparities in QoL and depression following surgery. While RYGB showed slightly higher QoL scores in males while SG exhibited greater levels of depression, these distinctions were not significant. The findings outline the significance of post-operative support for individuals, regardless of type, to enhance mental well-being and QoL.
