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
Objective: Discuss rates of emergency reoperations within 30 days after metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) from 2017 to 2022 in Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP) Centers of Excellence. Also, identify the preoperative factors contributing to increased risk of emergency reoperation after MBS and evaluate the impact of emergent reoperations on postoperative outcomes within 30 days. Background: While prior studies have evaluated the outcomes associated with revisional surgeries many years after index MBS and reoperations within 30 days, little is known about the trends in emergent reoperations after MBS. Methods: MBSAQIP database from 2017 to 2022 was utilized for evaluating the trends and outcomes related to emergent reoperations after MBS. Results: Overall, the rate of emergency reoperations has declined significantly (from 0.84% to 0.60%). Up to half the emergency reoperations occurred within postoperative day 0-3 and two-thirds occurred within 7 days from surgery. Some of the preoperative comorbidities and demographics of patients requiring emergency reoperations were older age, males, history of deep venous thrombosis, history of myocardial ischemia, gastroesophageal reflux disease, therapeutic anticoagulation, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Analysis of postoperative outcomes after matching patients who underwent emergency reoperation with those who did not undergo reoperation showed higher rates of death (3.48% vs 0.19%, Conclusions: Emergent reoperations after MBS have significantly worse morbidity and mortality. Recognition of high-risk preoperative factors can help optimize the modifiable factors preoperatively and facilitate closer monitoring of vulnerable patients.
