Sleeve gastrectomy for morbid obesity: weight loss trajectory and failure predictors over a decade.
Article in Future science OA, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundSleeve gastrectomy (SG) is an effective treatment for morbid obesity, promoting weight loss and resolving related comorbidities.
methodsThis prospective, observational study involved 100 patients undergoing SG at Farhat Hached Hospital, Sousse, between February 2009 and December 2019.
resultsPatients had a mean age of 34 ± 9.9 years and a mean BMI of 46.2 ± 7.8 kg/m
conclusionsOur findings demonstrate that sleeve gastrectomy offers substantial initial weight loss, with the maximum Excess Weight Loss (EWL) achieved at 2 years. However, this weight loss diminishes over the long term, with long-term data (up to a decade) requiring cautious interpretation due to high attrition. A comprehensive understanding of factors influencing long-term success is vital for improving patient care.
