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

Background: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for obesity in Adolescents. However, disordered eating is frequent in this population. Several studies found that disordered eating affects weight loss after bariatric surgery. The aim of this study was to find out the impact of disordered eating on weight loss in Egyptian adolescents two years after sleeve gastrectomy. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study conducted at Ain Shams University Hospitals from March 2020 to March 2024. It included 47 adolescents with obesity who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) two years before. Their age was 16.2 ± 0.67 years (range 14.5 - 17.8 years old). Their body mass indices were above 99th percentile for age and sex with or without comorbidities. They had a mean BMI of 39.9 kg/m² (range: 36.9 - 54.3 kg/m²). Patients with psychiatric illnesses and eating disorders were excluded. Patients were recruited after completion of two years of follow up for weight loss. Weight loss was evaluated by total weight loss % (TWL%). Disordered eating was detected by the Arabic version of EDE-Q v.6.0, and a global score of > 2.5 was considered positive. TWL% was correlated with EDE-Q score. Results: After two years, the mean TWL% was 27.5% ± 7.7%. Nineteen patients (40.4%) had EDE-Q score more than 2.5. The EDE-Q positive patients had a mean %TWL of 25.7% ± 4.8%, while EDE-Q negative patients had a mean %TWL of 30.5% ± 6.2%. The difference is statistically significant. Conclusion: We conclude that the outcome of sleeve gastrectomy in adolescents is affected by their eating behavior as soon as the restrictive effect of the operations subsides.
