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

backgroundThis study evaluated how sleeve gastrectomy affects inflammatory and nutritional markers in obese, comorbidity-free individuals, and their relationship with anthropometric measurements.

methodsThis study retrospectively evaluated 160 obese patients who underwent primary laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy from 2021 to 2024. Demographic, anthropometric, and lab data were analyzed pre- and 6 months post-op. Changes in body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and weight loss percentages were calculated. Hepatic steatosis was assessed by ultrasound. Complete blood count, albumin, and hemoglobin levels were also analyzed. From these, the Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, and Platelet (HALP) score, Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII), Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), Pan-Immune-Inflammation Value (PIV), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and Modified Systemic Inflammation Score (mSIS) were calculated.

resultsThe patients averaged 33.7 ± 10.4 years old; 61.9% (n = 99) were female. Post-op, significant decreases occurred in body weight, BMI, waist circumference, hepatic steatosis, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, and platelet counts, SII, and PIV (p < 0.001 for all, except lymphocytes, p = 0.002). LMR significantly increased (p < 0.001), while PNI showed a mild but significant decrease (p = 0.021). Although weak positive correlations were observed between the reduction in waist circumference and HALP (r = 0.171, p = 0.038), and between the percentage reduction in waist circumference and change in SII (r = 0.159, p = 0.046), no significant relationship was found between the change in the anthropometric measurements and inflammatory markers overall.

conclusionsSleeve gastrectomy significantly reduces both weight and systemic inflammation. However, there's no significant association between weight loss or body composition and inflammatory markers. This suggests that factors beyond just weight reduction may influence systemic inflammation.
