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
introductionPatients who undergo to gastroplasty present massive weight loss and the plastic surgery represents an important play in the treatment. The aim of this study is to present the profile of patients who underwent plastic surgery after bariatric surgery performed at the Reference Public Hospital in West-Center of Brazil.
methodsA descriptive, analytical and retrospective study was performed in a single public hospital on patients who underwent post-bariatric plastic surgery from January 2011 to December 2023. Three hundred and sixteen patients who underwent plastic surgery following Roux-Y gastroplasty were studied. Measures included BMI (body mass index) before gastroplasty and before plastic surgery, medical complications and comorbidities.
results316 patients (297 female, 19 male) with a mean age of 43 years underwent 268 separated operations. The average BMI at the time of plastic surgery was 27,39kg/m2 . Average weight loss was 47,44kg and mean pre-weight loss BMI (max BMI) was 45,5kg/m2 .The most important preplastic comorbities were: arterial hypertension (12,7%), degenerative artrophaty (7,0%), diabete melito (5,7%) and methabolic syndrom (4,4%). From 316 patients operated, 75,7% were underwent abdominoplasty followed by mammaplasy (41,4%), ritidoplasty (12,0%), and brachioplasty (12,0%). Thirty-nine (12,3%) patients had hernia repair in combination with abdominoplasty. The complication rate was 31,3%.
conclusionEpidemiological profile of postbariatric patients who underwent body contour surgery showed peculiar clinical, anthropometric and surgical aspects, specially the low prevelence of comorbidities, the low number of associated surgeries and rate of postoperative complications in the group studied.
